Untitled document
The students will:
1.  Show proper use of drafting tools by producing drafting projects.
2.  Demonstrate the ability to produce consistent linework on
   drafting exercises.
3.  Show ability to produce legible lettering in drafting projects.
4.  Illustrate how to execute geometric construction in assigned drafting
   exercises.
5.  Execute freehand drafting in assigned drafting projects.
6.  Show understanding of orthographic projections and isometric drawings
   in completing drafting projects.

Topics and Scope
Untitled document
1.  Introduction and use of tools, beginning linework.
     A. Use of tools, how to make a print, drawing procedure, and
        vocabulary of reproducible linework.
2.  Linework and lettering.
     A. Reproducible linework continures, letter forms, practice
        lettering.
3.  Lettering and geometric construction.
     A. Lettering continues, how to use compass, basic geometric
        drafting techniques (dividing lines, constructing triangles,
        hexagons, octagons).
4.  Geometric construction.
     A. More complex geometric construction such as tangents, and
        constructing forms by figuring out missing data.
5.  Freehand drawing.
     A. How to do drafting without using tools, basic level.
6.  Orthographic projections.
     A. Introduction to the principles of orthographic projection,
        freehand three-view drawings, and practice converting isometrics
        to three-view.
7.  Orthographic projections and isometric drawing.
     A. Orthographic projections from incomplete data based on principles
        learned earlier and instrument orthographic projections.
        Introduction to isometrics.
8.  Isometric drawing.
     A. Drawing isometrics using instruments.

Assignments:
Untitled document
1.  Each unit of instruction will have assignments to be completed
   by the student during the lab portion of the class and outside
   the class.
2.  These assignments have been designed to develop basic manual drafting
   skills.
