The course is designed based on constructivist and elaboration theories. Visual design modules have been designed with software instruction modules as an organic inseparable body. Two student groups attended the course as 35 and 15 people. Couse has been analyzed by using qualitative case study techniques and ‘design principles for three dimensional tool instruction instruction’ have been listed as: instruction, technical issues related with software and hardware, instructor, software interface, spatial visualization abilities, course duration and group issues.trÜç Boyutlu OrtamYazılım ÖğretimiProje Tabanlı ÖğretimAyrıntılama TeorisiTasarım EğitimiThree Dimensional EnvironmentElaboration TheorySoftware TrainingSoftware TeachingProject Based TeachingDesign ThinkingArticle
