Are there consistent results for the individual categories between the three raters?MethodologyDuring the Fall 2015 semester, 51 technology students completed the second exam in anintroductory engineering graphics course on the 15th day of class. The exam consisted ofmultiple-choice and matching items used to assess textbook information related to introductoryconstraint-based modeling. The exam also included two constraint-based modeling activities(Figures 2 & 3). For the two activities, students were asked to model the objects with the givendimensions first. They were given the correct values for the distance between points A & B, thearea of

graphics hasyielded valuable insights thus far. The phenomenon of expert-blind-spots has beenrevealed numerous times in the creation and evaluation of pilot items. This occurswhen practitioners reach a high enough level of proficiency that it impedes their abilityto relate to beginner mistakes. Items whose inclusion in the pilot study were questionedby one or more researchers tended to generate a range of unexpected responses. Therewere several responses that seemed beyond the comprehension of the researchers, as itseemed so against what was ingrained in graphics convention and practice.References1 Pleck, M.

Screencast homework was given to students and all project activities wereconducted in teams. Each student in a team was assigned with a tag A or B: “tag A” forgenerating a screencast and “tag B” for providing comments. Students with different tags tookone of the two following roles: either making the screencasts or providing comments. Screencastexercises were designed to promote self-learning

Students solve paper based problems while being able to see and“touch” the model with the MR application that is compiled for the Moverio see-through glasses.The Mobile App projects the model in front of the students’ eyes, allowing them to see the threedimensional (3D) representation of the objects in the problems right in front of them. This is asimilar experience to giving a real model of the problem to their hands which is not always possiblein large classes.

Modeling? Direct modeling is an intuitive approach to creating geometry without the burden ofhistory-based dependencies. History-based (procedural) parameterization of modelsrequires the user to thoughtfully consider the important model input/output parameters;independent dimensions are identified and defined by the user during model creation whiledependent dimensions are calculated based on procedure (history tree rebuild). However,instead of storing the sequence of feature creation, a direct model is based on the boundaryrepresentation (b-rep) of the solid. The model is regenerated based on a set of geometricconstraint equations rather than the sequential reconstruction of feature history. This is asimple but powerful method of specifying

It wasadministered to students in all sections near the end of the Fall, 2015 semester. Thesurvey covered various components of the course. A subset of these survey items (13items) focused on assessing student patterns of use and perceptions of the variousideation methods introduced by the instructor. These ideation method survey itemsincluded a) a checklist grid in which students were asked to indicate whether they usedeach ideation method on each of three course projects, b) Likert-type items onperceptions of the ideation methods, and c) open-ended items on the ideation

For future research, it would be interesting to see the rate of improvement of spatial visualization skills those classified as having low spatial ability would have at the end of the semester after having been exposed to the formal training; while observing which learning style group makes the most gain.
