Ajay Shankar Tiwari; Kaushal Kumar Bhagat; Georgios Lampropoulos – Smart Learning Environments, 2024
Currently, augmented reality (AR) is one of the emerging technologies which is being widely used in the education sector. In engineering drawing, AR has been implemented to enhance learners' spatial ability but not their conceptual knowledge yet. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the effect of AR on engineering drawing students' learning…

Han, Peng-Fei; Zhao, Feng-Kui; Zhao, Gang – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2022
Mechanical assembly courses are widely set up for mechanical and vehicle engineering majors. Teaching in these classes is traditionally presented in the form of 2-D lectures, which are ineffective for students to understand complex 3-D information. The study presented in this article aimed to investigate whether augmented reality (AR) could…

Shirazi, Arezoo; Behzadan, Amir H. – Advances in Engineering Education, 2015
Recent studies suggest that the number of students pursuing science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) degrees has been generally decreasing. An extensive body of research cites the lack of motivation and engagement in the learning process as a major underlying reason of this decline. It has been discussed that if properly…

Carr, Ronald L.; Strobel, Johannes – National Center for Engineering and Technology Education, 2011
Engineering is being currently taught in the full spectrum of the P-12 system, with an emphasis on design-oriented teaching (Brophy, Klein, Portsmore, & Rogers, 2008). Due to only a small amount of research on the learning of engineering design in elementary and middle school settings, the community of practice lacks the necessary knowledge of the…
