Abstract
This research shows that experiential learning using problem-based simulation activities was perceived by students and teachers as a valuable tool to use in design engineering and in the education of CAD/Drafting students. The simulation activities offer many advantages to the user in visualizing results and being able to predict more accurately answers to problems. Results are shared from action research projects involving high school design/CAD students, university workshop participants, and university mechanical engineering technology students.
