One section of the survey explored distance education in technical/engineeringgraphics education; as prior research suggested that changes had occurred in the instructionaltopics and practices of the field. Previous research also shows that instructors wondered if thesame topics were being taught and the same technology was being used by graphicsprofessionals as a part of their

The inclusion of undergraduates in facultyresearch was a natural extension of faculty research and a welcome addition to the list ofavailable student projects. At the same time, many faculty were involved heavily within theircommunity and knew of potential service-based projects that would challenge and educate thestudents.
