physical manipulative tools in teaching/learning environmentsLaboratories and visual computer simulations have been found to be effective in helping studentsunderstand abstract concepts (Zacharia & Olympiou, 2011). However, it has been suggested thatvisual simulations alone may not be fully supportive for some students learning these concepts(Chi, 2008). In addition, most of the currently available simulations focus on the sense of sightand hearing, and very little on the sense of touch, which is one of the most common ways forpeople to interact with physical objects (Thurfjell, McLaughlin, Mattsson & Lammertse, 2002;Han & Black, 2011).

This study considers time requirements, conceptualdifficulty of subject matter and scheduling of course tasks (including assignments, tests, exams,laboratories) when analyzing first-year engineering student workload.Research supports active engagement in learning and its role in motivating students [5],particularly to contend with workload challenges. Kember et al. found that perceived workloadis not necessarily an accurate measure of actual workload but that it is a function of individualcharacteristics, approaches to learning, and conceptions of the learning context [6].A heavier workload has been correlated to a more ‘surface approach’ to learning, contrasted witha ‘deep approach’ found to be connected to higher levels of
