learning that peer-to-peer review encourages (Jones & Wheadon, 2015).The majority of research around ACJ has been centered in Europe (Hartell & Skogh, 2015;Kimbell, 2012a, 2012b; Seery, Canty, & Phelan, 2012) with recent efforts in the United States(Bartholomew, Reeve et al., 2017; Strimel, et al., 2017) and Australia (Heldsinger & Humphry,2010). While ACJ has been utilized in K-12 classrooms the majority of ACJ-use has taken placewith higher education, awarding bodies, and industry (M. Wingfield, personal communication,November 15, 2016). Collaborative efforts to use ACJ in international settings have recentlybeen undertaken with future efforts planned for international assessment research.Tools for ACJCurrently there are limited

 planning, coordinating and organizing ability In order to receive accreditation from the Accreditation Board for Engineering andTechnology (ABET), an engineering or engineering technology program “must havedocumented student outcomes that prepare graduates to attain the program educational objectives[3].” Highlighted below are several outcomes provided by ABET [3] for accrediting engineeringtechnology programs. Interestingly, and not surprisingly, these student outcomes are similar tothe attributes specified as desirable by employers.  an ability to select and apply the knowledge, techniques, skills, and modern tools of the discipline to broadly-defined engineering technology activities  an ability to select and apply a

Incontrast, ‘Enquiry’ was implemented at Michigan Tech as a means of developing spatialvisualization skills and to help students understand conventional methods of representingobjects.The collaboration across two international universities proved very beneficial in terms ofmodifying and improving the apparatus used in the activity but it also provided a means ofcritiquing and refining the courses in which they were implemented. The recommendationsfrom ‘Phase 2’ indicate that careful consideration should be given to the timing andapplication of ‘Enquiry’ within modules of study. This planning should take learningoutcomes and students’ prerequisite knowledge into account. For example, it may bebeneficial to facilitate experiential learning of various

an important aspect in the development ofmodeling strategies.Barnes et al.24 suggests that many of the exercises presented to students are in the form of“elegant solutions” which present essentially one single obvious modeling approach. Fortunately,even very simple parts such as those presented in standard graphics texts can be modeled usingdifferent strategies. In planning a part model, the designer must decompose or “featurize” thepart to be created in the solid modeling system. Two common strategies for modeling simpleparts involve decomposition into features based on either additive or subtractive approaches.30Metrics for Evaluating Solid Model Part ComplexityIt is important to choose parts for CAD instruction that present increasing

The App allows students toperform sketching exercises on a touchscreen. When a sketch is completed, a grading algorithmautomatically grades the sketch and provides immediate feedback. The goal is to create a moreengaging and more cost-effective spatial visualization training method.The SVT App could ultimately be used in the classroom, independent learning, or a hybridenvironment. While independent learning may provide the students with the maximum amountof flexibility and the lowest instructional costs, recent attempts with on-line learning havereported a low level of student engagement resulting

There is a 10.6% improvement in homeworkgrades and a 14.9% improvement in quiz grades from the Spring 2010 semester to the Fall 2010semester. This is due to the introduction of the CBI material as well as the new EG website. Thecontrol groups benefited in the form of better planned lessons but did not benefit from the CBIlessons.
