Teaching Geometry through Dynamic Modeling in Introductory Engineering Graphics.
Wiebe, Eric N.; Branoff, Ted J.; Hartman, Nathan W.
Engineering Design Graphics Journal, v67 n2 p12-20 Spr 2003
Examines how constraint-based 3D modeling can be used as a vehicle for rethinking instructional approaches to engineering design graphics. Focuses on moving from a mode of instruction based on the crafting by students and assessment by instructors of static 2D drawings and 3D models. Suggests that the new approach is better aligned with problem-solving abilities in the technology and engineering workforce. Includes instructional activities. (Author/NB)
