Thismethod of learning is beneficial in face-to-face situations where students may engage in groupactivities. But it becomes more challenging to replicate in online courses. There is evidence thatthe CIQ is widely used in various levels of education [5, p. 177], but there is only limitedevidence of how the CIQ is used in engineering online teaching environments. Keefer describesthe pedagogical value of this type of research: “We want to better understand the experiences and perceptions of the student learners, for the more we can understand them, the more we can teach in ways that may meet their needs” [5

A meeting was held toexplain the program and invite students to participate. In addition, the undergraduates earnedindependent study credit for participating in the project.

The desktop set upincluded a joystick with an integrated throttle. The large screen out-of-window views weregenerated by three ultra-short-throw LCD projectors set up in a rear projection mode. The LCDprojectors were driven by three dedicated PCs which were slaved to a fourth PC that served as themaster.

Both of which were evaluated by the departmental staff. The scope,rigor, and quality of such projects appeared to be similar to those found in the U.S., which wasencouraging. However, the lack of staff with academic credentials made this problematic as thenumber of available project supervisors was so limited to adequately mentor approximately 20master level and 30 undergraduate students within the department.

with their finalgrade in an engineering graphics class [8], [14], [15]. Hsi et al. found that, in an engineeringgraphics class, spatial visualization ability was correlated with the overall course grade, such thatwomen, who had lower average spatial visualization scores, also tended to have lowerperformance in the course. However, the gender difference was not present for grades onhomework or projects. Therefore, they attributed the discrepancy in final grade to the lowerexam scores of women compared to that of men [2]. It has been hypothesized that femalesemploy slower strategies in solving rotation problems than males, which may contribute to thediscrepancy in scores observed on time-restrictive spatial visualization tests [13] and
