COURSE
OUTLINE
Based on
(The Eagle
Expectations Integration of Core Knowledge and Critical Thinking apply to all
standards)
Students
will understand how to use hardware and design software to create geometry and
will apply dimensioning practices to complete drawings. Students will organize drawings, using
accepted CADD procedures. Students will
apply appropriate software file-management procedures. They will produce hard copies of the
completed drawings and provide electronic files for a variety of graphic
outputs.
Students will understand the
structure, components, types, sequential construction methods, and applications
of perspective drawings. They will draw
objects accurately using two point perspective techniques.
Students
will understand research and design strategies that are environmentally safe
and appropriate to manufacturing and construction product development in
selected technologies. They will
incorporate these strategies (e.g., ideation, review of literature, rough
sketches, study model, final sketches, prototype development, prototype evaluation) in the universal problem-solving
approach (e.g., input, process, outcome, feedback) for the development of
manufacturing and construction products.
Standard 20: Geometric Tolerancing
Students
will understand current industrial standards of geometric symbology. They will apply the symbology
to the function of the parts and the design intent.
Standard
21: Working and Production Drawings
Students
will understand the relationship of detail drawings, assembled drawings, and
working drawings. Students will complete
the various types of working drawings, using appropriate line work, symbology, and current standards.
