Abstract

The development or improvement of 3-D spatial visualization skills is often cited as one of the major goals of engineering design graphics education. Historically, improvements in spatial skills were achieved as a by-product of an engineering graphics education that often included several semesters of instruction in manual drafting technique. As the engineering curriculum evolved through time, instruction in manual drafting technique was greatly reduced or eliminated altogether in favor of sketching and/or computer applications. This paper will attempt to answer several questions regarding back-ground information on research in spatial skills, will describe those strategies that graphics educators can adopt to develop these skills in their students, and will highlight the results from a project for developing spatial skills for first-year engineering students.
