This engineering education research award to Purdue University will employ researchers to use current technology in 3-D virtual world environments and virtual organizations to improve the development of design skills for engineering students. The virtual design studios would provide the opportunity for team-based inquiry and collaboration and would help students learn both content and processes such as evaluating design alternatives and making design decisions. Students would participate in a virtual research and design firm and would analyze and design aircraft and compete for contracts. The methods and results of this research will advance general understanding of how virtual design environments and serious games using technology that is familiar and attractive to students can be used to improve engineering education, provide collaboration opportunities for geographically distributed teams, and help prepare students for engineering jobs.

授予普渡大学的工程教育研究奖将聘请研究人员在 3D 虚拟世界环境和虚拟组织中使用当前技术，以提高工程学生的设计技能的发展。虚拟设计工作室将为基于团队的探究和协作提供机会，并帮助学生学习内容和流程，例如评估设计方案和制定设计决策。学生将加入虚拟研究和设计公司，分析和设计飞机并竞争合同。这项研究的方法和结果将促进人们对虚拟设计环境和严肃游戏如何使用学生熟悉且有吸引力的技术来改善工程教育、为地理分布的团队提供协作机会以及帮助学生为工程工作做好准备的普遍理解。
