The depth information provided instereo images can help users perceive geometric and design features more clearly, morerealistically, and more accurately than traditional 2D projection views. Therefore, stereo VRdisplay systems can help users more fully understand design objects, when compared withconventional 2D display systems.Currently, there are several different methods for generating a stereo view of a 3D object. Themost popular stereo display methods include: anaglyphic, polarized, line interlaced, frameflipping, and sync doubling. Each stereo display method characteristically has its own strengthsand weaknesses.Both anaglyphic and polarized stereo systems

Academic programs often havestudent teams accomplish course, design, and lab projects starting with the freshmen introductorycourses and culminating with capstone senior design. Where do students learn about teams in thecurriculum? How do they learn to be good team members? It seems the most pervasive approachto teams in higher education is a “sink or swim” attitude where teams are allowed to form on theirown and work out any issues that arise. Little, if any, formal instruction on being a team memberis given throughout the curriculum. Even less
