Abstract

We have redefined the goals of the Freshman course in Engineering Graphics at Santa Clara University to emphasize graphic communication skills as a vehicle to introduce the design process and a design experience. Integration of the critical thinking component into the course has led to our own iterative, interactive design process of a more effective teaching methodology.
