Distance learningopportunities are becoming an integral part of program offerings at most universities, andproviding students access to classes through distance learning platforms affords students a widervariety of courses, increasing demand. Some students enroll in distance courses to study at nightwhile maintaining full-time jobs. Some enroll in and attend a university’s classes though theylive well outside normal commuting distances. Additionally, some students choose to take asemester(s) to study abroad and still take classes required by their home institution, enablingthem to graduate on time with their peers.

In 2007, the author acquired the course and soon discoveredthe difficulty in attempting to cover the required content areas in the allotted thirty hours oflecture and twenty hours of lab time per quarter, while providing a sufficient degree of exposureand hands-on experience for the students. Additionally, based on the author’s industrialexperience, it was noted that the majority of the ETEC students were not acquiring practicalexperience in the areas of project management and process planning.

interface was based on atrace-paper overlay mechanism in which designers could use drawing tools that created line-work modeled after traditional markers and pencils. It could also merge sketches into 3-Dmodels, thus bridging the gap between 2-D and 3-D graphics. However, its limited adoption hasbeen attributed to the lack of wide-scale adoption of pen-based input devices [10]. Many othersketch based 2-D to 3-D have been proposed or developed by researchers over the past decades.These include seminal applications such as Sutherlands SketchPad, a constraint-based drawingenvironment developed in the 1960’s, and STRAIT, a program developed in the 1970’s thatinterpreted sketch geometry as straight lines [11].
