Recently, many individuals have been faced with a transfer of learning issue, surrounding the move from one 3-D CAD system to another.  The purpose of this research was to test the hypothesis that, with minimal instruction, users can transfer their…

Engineering and technical graphics professionals have seen major changes in the content and the way we teach our students (Clark & Scales, 2000).  Today, professionals going into fields related to engineering/technical graphics require a broader knowledge of differing forms of…

Spatial ability research has been approached from several psychological vantages since its beginnings in the late 1800s. This contribution attempts a summation of spatial ability research, beginning with a historical vignette and a major section on each psychological approach including…

Constraint-based modeling tools, as well as computer graphics tools in general, offer the user many choices in commands and techniques for creating graphics, which forces the user to have a strategy or plan as they proceed. The formulation of this…

In this paper, I offer an explanation of my own working art practices as set within the context of the spaces of the archive and presented as a series of questions arrived at through action, illuminated in turn by anthropological…

Welcome to the first issue of the Craft Australia Research Centre journal craft + design enquiry. The journal aims to advance high quality research undertaken by craft, design and related sectors by publishing research on specific themes and areas. Papers…

Nowadays, using electronic search engines has replaced visiting libraries for information allowing in-print, out of print and orphan works to be conjured up from cyberspace for ready perusal. Such “allowed” borrowing of content on the internet has created a whole…

Oxygenases are ubiquitous enzymes that catalyze the introduction of one or two oxygen atoms to unreactive chemical compounds. They require reduction equivalents from NADH or NADPH and comprise metal ions, metal ion complexes, or coenzymes in their active site. Thus,…

To have a sustainable competitive advantage, an organization should realize how to create, distribute and utilize knowledge through an organization and how attach it to organizational process. Another important thing is a manager should know what kind of knowledge they…
