supported the ”wow” factor associated with in- quiry and discovery. In 2007, Brian left the world of engineering to pursue a career in education. For the past 5 years, Brian has taught various levels of high school physics, mathematics, applied technology, and robotics. Brian joined Sparkfun Electronics to help integrate ”tinkering,” electronics, and computational thinking into the classroom. One of his goals is to help teachers to de-mystify how household consumer electronics work. With a few simple tools, classrooms can excite and encourage students to explore the possibilities of microcontrollers, electronics, and physical computing. Brian Huang has a Bachelor’s of Science in Electrical Engineering from the

Improving spatial visualization skills has been identified as a priority forincreasing the percentage of women in STEM fields2, as well as other under-representedminorities. These priorities have led to the desire to increase the ease of teaching and learningspatial visualization. One approach is electronic learning, eLearning, which encompasses a widerange of computer use in education.The spatial visualization courses that have been shown to be effective utilize a combination ofmultiple-choice questions and freehand sketching assignments1.
