Manfredi, Louise Rosanna – Engineering Design Graphics Journal, 2020
In spring 2020, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic forced universities across the globe to move all teaching from in person to online. This pivot led to instructors needing to support students who became dispersed all over the world with little time to prepare. Whilst online teaching is not a new concept, there is relatively little literature…

Pando Cerra, Pablo; Gracia Rodríguez, Javier; Fernández Álvarez, Humberto; Busto Parra, Bernardo – Interactive Learning Environments, 2020
Interactive Web Environments and multimedia tools are very common in engineering studies. However, these resources are very limited when graphical resolution is needed during the learning process. A learning environment that combines video and self-assessment Computer-Aided Design (CAD) tools was developed to analyse this problem and to determine…
