. IntroductionThe field of Engineering Graphics has been greatly impacted by the use of computers over thelast twenty-five years. Traditionally, engineering designs were conveyed in a 2-D drawing thatused orthographic projection and drafting standards. Engineers in the past had to learn thesecommon graphical practices as part of their formal education. With modern computer tools, theconveying of design ideas now begins with the development of a 3-D solid computer model.The model not only creates a visual image that allows the designer to see the geometry, but italso creates a 3-D digital data base that can be applied to all phases of the design process. Thefreshman “Engineering Design and Graphics” course at the University of Texas at Austin reflectsthis

Accordingly, some researchers have used time spent on tasks inrelation to performance on tasks as indicators of cognitive flexibility. Another definition is the“selective use of knowledge to adaptively fit the needs of understanding and decision-making ofa particular situation” [1, p. 548]. The latter definition seems appropriate for describing cognitiveflexibility in engineering problem-solving but does not seem to be fully captured by existingmeasures of time spent on task and performance.Guided by CFT, the main goals of our NSF EEC project were to improve students’ abilities toapply sustainable engineering concepts across different problem contexts or
