ABSTRACT

Most designers today use computer aided design software (CAD) to assist and implement their ideas. Through the construction of 3D models, can help designers more specifically express their ideas. However, the process of modeling itself is a design process, but designers use different ways of thinking, which will make the process of construct the model different, and allow designers to complete the design of different efficiency. In this study, the lower-order thinking design process and the higher-order thinking design process will be given to the subjects in two different ways: Bottom-Up and Top-Down. Then, this study simulates the problems that may be encountered when constructing the 3D model, and then allows the subjects to construct 3D models with different degrees. Through experimental design, explore the differences and impacts between them. And provide a reference for constructing models and learning new software for industrial designers. Finally, we found that after using the high-order thinking skill (which is the design process). The model is constructed faster and the number of instructions used is less. The difference between the average time of construct the model and the difference in the number of instructions used are significant when the subjects with or without use higher-order thinking skill (which means with or without use design process).
