successful initial development of a one semester undergraduatecourse in Microstation © and GEOPAK©, for undergraduate Civil Engineering students. A briefsummary of the academic institution is provided, describing the environment within which theengineering program exists. The Bachelor of Science in Engineering program is described insummary. Significantly more details are provided concerning the Civil Engineering specialtyconcentration. The rationale behind why the course development was undertaken is explained,focusing on the specific educational needs of the undergraduate Civil Engineering students. Asummary of the capabilities of Microstation © and GEOPAK © is explored, relative toundergraduate versus graduate educational needs – as well as

students, and devalued them.The 2004 SME team ended up consisting of a project manager (graduate student) and astreaming media technologist (undergraduate student); one graduate student was removed fromthe team, since he was unable to commit to the time. The summer of 2004 Dr. Harris accepted atenure-track position and her time for pro bono work was limited. The 2005 team consisted offour students (a project manager, an art director, a senior video editor, a junior video editor). Dueto personal issues, the junior video editor was unable to complete the microscope video.Technological factors: Resistance to new technologyIt is not difficult to understand why tenure-track faculty may be resistant to the utilization ofinstructional technologies in the

to SpatialVisualization (SV) training specifically in the area of providing feedback hints to students whenperforming freehand sketching exercises on touchscreen devices.SV is the ability to visualize and manipulate 2D and 3D shapes in one’s mind. This skill has beentied to success in many careers, yet this skill is undertaught or not typically taught in most K-12and engineering curricula. A seminal study by Sorby [1] showed that SV skills can be taught andcan result in a significant increase in GPAs and graduation rates. 7000 students were tracked forover 15 years showing similar results [2]. The increase in graduation rates is especiallysignificant for women and other underrepresented minorities in STEM [3], who may have hadless experience
