The presentresults should be considered exploratory and interpreted within the context of study limitations.A manuscript is in development with more detailed information related to the theoreticalunderpinnings of the variables, suggestions for the specific use of the information, and furtherdetail into the methods used. Details are limited in this format and this paper is meant tointroduce a larger project to this audience.

) into Learning Management System (LMS) based“quizzes,” b) develop sketching problems for the modules that previously did not have them, and c)compile a “sketching only” workbook suitable for use in the spatial skills course. The rationale behindthis decision was as follows: ● As we moved to online instruction, one significant criticism levied against universities was the increased cost that was an especially difficult burden for students from low SES groups. Since these are some of the students targeted for spatial skills instruction, a brief workbook would be less expensive than requiring them to have a printer and toner, a touch-screen computer/tablet, or a stylus for sketching. ● There is evidence

The SWIVL takes away this manualcontrol element. The audio using this setup is also an improvement upon an iPad alone or awebcam setup. The microphone on the marker and USB speaker greatly improve the ability tocommunicate with students who attend remotely. The biggest drawback using this method is thatthe video quality is limited to the capability of the iPad’s front-facing camera. Depending on theplacement of the SWIVL, this can make it difficult for remote students to see the board. (a) (b) Figure 1: A

challenge with remote learning is ensuring all students have equitable access tothe Internet. The Spatial Vis app can work in offline mode if access to the Internet is a problem.Essentially, grading of assignments can occur locally and progress in the app is saved until theapp can connect with the internet and sync student progress with eGrove Education’s servers.3. Evaluation MethodsThis evaluation takes place in two college engineering CAD courses in San Diego, CA. The firstcourse denoted as Class A (CIVE 121 Computer Graphics for the Built Environment) was taughtat San Diego State University. It was on a semester system and was approximately 5-6 weeksinto the semester when the pandemic hit. The other course denoted as Class B (SE 3
