Metraglia, Riccardo; Villa, Valerio; Baronio, Gabriele; Adamini, Riccardo – Engineering Design Graphics Journal, 2015
Today's students enter engineering colleges with different technical backgrounds and prior graphics experience. This may due to their high school of provenience, which can be technical or non-technical. The prior experience affects students' ability in learning and hence their motivation and self-efficacy beliefs. This study intended to evaluate…
