Although some class time each week will be devoted to working on assignments, students should plan to spend time at home completing the assignments. The final grade for the class will be based on the weekly assignments. If you knew how to do it, you wouldn't be here. You will be graded on completion of assignments and demonstration of your commitment to expanding your abilities throughout the quarter as well as technical competence. Students will balance the need to create clear and understandable graphic plans while simultaneously making judgments of aesthetics regarding the drawings.
Students practice expressing their ideas through graphic communication.
Students will practice the ability to thoughtfully and constructively give and receive assessments of their own and of others' work. Students will use engineers and architects scales to produce scaled plans, sections and elevations.
