Intro to Computer Aided Drafting
SYLLABUS
Instructor: Mr. Gurner
[email protected]
Course Description:
This course serves as an introduction to the AutoCAD 2013 software, the industry standard for computer aided Design and Drafting in the Engineering and Architectural Design fields. Students at Brookline High School are very fortunate to have access to this powerful program.
The course will begin with an introduction to fundamental 2 dimensional Computer Aided Drafting techniques and principles through a series of drawing exercises aimed at familiarizing students with the drawing and editing tools of the software. These will be followed by an overview of conventional drafting and plan reading strategies, orthographic projection and multi-view drawing theory. Continued assignments in both Engineering and Architectural Drafting techniques and conventions will culminate in a complete set of Architectural plans for a small residential building.
While this is primarily a hands-on, project based class, there will also be weekly lectures, demonstrations and discussions on a range of related topics that students will be expected to master. Students can expect at least 4 quizzes over the course of the semester on these topics. Students are expected to keep a small 3 ring binder with class notes, handouts and finished drawing assignments.
Final grades will be calculated as follows:
-Projects 50%
-Quizzes 30%
-Conduct and Effort 20%
Course Requirements
Students are required to complete all assignments on time. There will be ample
in-class time allowed for this.
Students are expected to attend all classes and arrive on time and be prepared to work.
