consider the MR attributes proposed by Milgram et al. to choose theright display device(s) to match his or her pedagogy. In this project, we plan to investigate howthe use of VR can affect the learner’s behavior and performance during the design verificationstage of industrial robot programming. Figure 2 illustrates the setup of the project. X Figure 2 Project setup: From RobotStudio to VR inspection to ABB Robot Conventionally the robot program was reviewed through desktop simulation prior todownloading it to the industrial robot for execution (red dotted line). We plan to use the virtualreality environment, circled in blue, as an intermediate stage to review the robot program

processes for product production applications such as forming, molding, separating, conditioning, joining, and finishing.5. Utilize 2-D and 3-D computer-aided design systems to create drawings and models for products, machines, jigs, fixtures, and other mechanical devices used in manufacturing environments.6. Read and interpret manufacturing documentation such as blue prints, technical drawings and diagrams, production plans, tooling plans, quality plans, and safety plans.TEC333 also has specific course objectives. Upon successful completion of the course, studentswill be able to:1. Identify geometric characteristic symbols and the other symbols associated with geometric dimensioning and tolerancing.2. Identify features with size and

are common across platforms. Chester provides the examples of mirroring lines,copying objects, and creating solids by extrusion. Procedural knowledge is understanding theparticular steps required to successfully execute a given command within a given system, andthis knowledge is often specific to each software package.Strategic knowledge exists apart from the particular commands available within any given CADsoftware package and entails what Chester refers to as “metacognitive” processes—processesthat involve “planning, monitoring, and revising” [5]. Strategic knowledge is important becauseit enables operators to work efficiently, completing CAD models more quickly. Moreimportantly, strategic knowledge also enables operators to more

plagiarism is actively discouraged.As part of the homework for the course, students create CAD models in response to tutorials andexercises. In tutorials, students follow instructions available on videos created with Camtasia [4],where the instructor creates the model in NX. The student sees what the instructor is doing, andmore importantly, can hear why the instructor chooses to do things in some ordered sequence. Inthe exercises, the student has to come up with their own plan and create a CAD model.Students upload all tutorial and exercise files to the instructor through the moodle learningmanagement system, and all filenames are expected to follow a standardized naming format. Inthe syllabus, the file naming convention is defined: All files

® based proofof concept version of CADcompare installed on a personal computer showcased the strengths ofthe software. CADcompare was able to compare multiple student drawings to the grading keymuch faster than previously used methods. Outcomes from user testing prompted the currentdevelopment of a web-based version. This paper offers general details on how CADcomparecompares PDF files, market analysis, the work in progress, and a planned research studycomparing grading times with and without CADcompare in an introductory engineering graphicscourse.IntroductionOften in an introductory engineering graphics course, students will learn about or review freehandsketching, geometric entities, solid primitives, line types, line precedence, projection

reasoned that with AR there is the potential of a closerintegration between the 3-D object and the abstractions that are a part of engineeringmanipulation, such as the orientation of the X-Y-Z axes and true 90 degree rotations. In addition,we had greater flexibility to create objects for which we did not have a scale physicalrepresentation (e.g., a house or a bicycle). Finally, we had the ability to create interactions thatwould be harder to create with physical objects, like having students identify a sequence ofmoves that would not begin until after locking in those steps, thus requiring a plan for mentalrotations prior to beginning the moves.

 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
