While magnifying the displacements makesthe models less “real”, it helps students to understand how deformation occurs in the object,similar to the method of using physical foam models. A sample view of an AR model from thecourse being viewed on a computer and in AR is shown in Figure 1a and b, respectively. Therewere minimal technical challenges when using the Sketchfab application in class. One suchchallenge was that students with older cell phones, approximately 5 students out of over 100,were unable to use the AR feature (Figure 1b). However, these students were still able to viewand rotate the model on their cell phones using the online viewer in the
