Waldron, Manjula B. – Engineering Education, 1985
Indicates that increased exposure to different objects in teaching orthographic projection benefits students, especially when they can manipulate and see the surfaces, points, and lines simultaneously or sequentially in three views. Positive attitudes and increased scores were noted after students used interactive computer graphics in an…
