Practical:
1.Machine Drawing Practice;
One or two drawing assignments that utilize the student’s experience in previous drawing courses, but requires more depth of exposure to the production of working drawings including limit dimensioning, surface finish, welds, threads, fasteners, bearings, couplings and other hardware.
2.Design Project I;
Introductory design project which may be the same for all students. It should be selected to combine the ideas of the design process with any analysis required, as well as the drawing process for communication of results. Students should be asked to outline and justify the logic behind the process of decision- making involved in the development of the design.
3.Design Project II;
More advanced project requiring a team approach say 4 students per group. The work of the project must be planned by the students as a group, the work divided and deadlines set for completion. Progress should be monitored and evaluated by the instructor at intervals to ensure success of the design effort. Again, detailed drawings are required and, if appropriate, oral presentations may be required for communication and justification of the project.
