My Project
Drafting vellum, drawing pencils and erasers are needed to introduce the basic fundamentals of a design process. Students will gain technical hand-skills in learning how to draft a 3D isometric orthographic working drawing from a 2D sketch. Learning how to measure with an architectural scale ruler and an engineering scale ruler is another important skill to learn.
Many opportunities for today's labor force can be found in the fields of engineering.
It is within these fields that learning how to sketch an idea from a dimensional concept into a dimensional detail drawing find their widest applications.
Drafting, like mathematics is a medium of precise communication. These students are learning how to interpret and make working drawings such as building plans, blueprints, product diagrams etc. Learning how to make a technical working drawing (shop drawing) is an important part of the process to make accurate models, mock-ups and prototypes to finish working models. (Functional prototypes) This class focuses on learning various industries that use working drawings to communicate and idea.
More than half of students from low‑income households
