Abstract

Engineering graphics and design teachers need a pedagogically viable teaching approach that can assist with planning and implementation procedures. This chapter explore EGD teachers' mastery of content representation (CoRe) when teaching civil drawing. A qualitative research approach was employed, and descriptive research design was used for this case study. Furthermore, Loughran notion of content representation guided this chapter through data collection and analysis of documents and semi-structured interviews. This chapter found that EGD teachers demonstrated low levels of mastery of content representation when teaching civil drawings. This was drawn from the disproportionality of their written and verbal responses. As a result, teachers could not perceive civil drawings as a means to advance equity and inclusion. This study recommended the use of a multi-user CAD (MUCAD) system which is virtual and allows for real-time collaboration with the potential to expand the learning outcomes and teaching methods for teaching civil drawing using CAD.
