2. To teach how to work with CAD software in Design projects.

Specific Aims/Objectives

1. To teach how to draw in AutoCAD.
2. To teach how to project orthographically using the first-angle method.
3. To teach how to section views.
4. To teach how to apply dimensions to drawings.

Skills to be acquired

At the end of the semester the students should be able to:

1. Use AutoCAD drawing tools.
2. Understand orthographic projections.
3. Project orthographically with the first-angle method.
4. Project section views.
5. Apply dimensions.
6. Use with layers and different types of line.
7. Use AutoCAD in design projects.

Teaching Procedures

The teaching will be divided by a theoretical part where the expositive and the interrogation methods will be used, and by a practical part, where the demonstrative and active methods will be used.
