The class studies and practices drawing skills andlearns the drawing standards that support the needs of the design team in advancingideas. It also provides the foundation for successful drawing communication in the CADenvironment. Topics covered include; drawing media and tools, hand drawing skills,perspectives, views, sketching, standard scales, geometric construction, sections,dimensioning, and tolerances. Demonstrate dexterity in the use of drawing instruments,templates etc. as reflected in neatness and accuracy.Course Objectives Upon completion of the course, the student should be able to:1.	 Produce accurate drawings according to recognized standards, conventions andillustration techniques.2.	 Use graphical methods to solve basic descriptive geometry problems.3.	 Learn to select appropriate methods of graphic representation in expressingspatial ideas and concepts 4.	 Produce orthographic sketches and projections with basic drawing instruments.5.	 Understand and use basic sectioning techniques. 6.	 Understand and practice basic dimensioning standards and styles.7.	 Understand the role and standards of tolerances in the drawing practice.                                                                                                                            8.	 Apply technical Drafting principles to many engineering disciplines. 9.	 Understand the role of graphics in the development of ideas and in thecommunication of information.  Required Materials Course Textbook Modern Graphics Communications. Fifth edition, by Shawna E.

Academic misconduct is subject to anacademic penalty by the course instructor and/or a disciplinary sanction by theUniversity. All students need to be familiar with the Student Conduct Code. The Code is available for review online at: Student Conduct Code. Using the Web to researchmaterials and concepts is an integral part of learning in the twenty-first century. Studyingwith other students is a productive method of learning. A certain amount of collaboratingon concepts with other students and using resources found on the Internet in anassignment is recommended. Copy and paste is not acceptable. It is expected that eachstudent will input his/her assignment into the computer, and each student must be ableto explain any assignment turned in. Collaboration on exams is strictly forbidden.Dropping and Adding Courses or Changing Sections, Grading or Credit Status University Policy for dropping courses or requesting grading/credit status changes canbe found in the catalog: Add/Drop Policy.
