The research comprises Initial Research to identify students’ levels of difficulties in ED topics and then followed by three phases, that is, (i) Phase I to identify students’ cognitive visual levels and AV problem solving methods which is then used to develop the pattern of problem solving methods in ED among students of various cognitive visual levels; (ii) Phase II is the development of VAL; and finally (iii) Phase III is to evaluate the effects of using the learning approach developed. The fundamental theories used in this research are Wiley Visual Cognition Stage, Auxiliary View Problem Solving Approach and Visual Literacy. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches are used to collect the data. The research samples consist of 43 Engineering Drawing teachers in the Initial Research; 350 students in Phase I; and 52 students in Phase III . The research instruments used for data collection include questionnaires, tests, interviews and observation checklists. Quantitative data were analyzed using SPSS version 11.5 while qualitative data were analyzed using triangulation method in single-case and crosscases. Results were presented as percentages, frequencies, means and transcripts. The initial study showed that the topic of AV is one of the topics in Engineering Drawing with high level difficulty. Results of Phase I showed the descending order of students’ visual cognition levels from visual memory, visual perception to visualization. The results also showed that the students used a combination of principles of projections, imagination and sketching to solve Engineering Drawing problems. The evaluation of the effects of using Visualization-based Learning Approach showed that the experimental group achieved a significant higher mean score as compared to the control group (significance value of t-test = 0.000). The outcomes of interviews also showed that the experimental group gave positive responses and constructive feedbacks on the effects of using this learning approach. In conclusion, the Visualization-based Learning Approach for learning Auxiliary View has been positively accepted by students. Hence, students and teachers are encouraged to apply this learning approach as the foundation for teaching and learning ED especially for the topics requiring visualization skills. zulaihi UTM 312 p.
