6. Procedures/Methods-
|
A. Introduction-
Show a PowerPoint to the students showing how Computer Aided Design
and drafting software is used in various disciplines like Architecture,
Civil and structural Engineering. Show the applications of CAD in
the real world applications by showing some examples
|
|
|
B. Development-
Create simple objects like rectangle, circle, arcs and poly lines
to demonstrate the various commands on the draw toolbar |
|
|
C. Practice-
1.Give a simple assignment to create a door with a jamb and swing.
2.Assignment to create a window with sill and frame detail
Walk around the lab and see how everyone is doing and help if needed
and answer questions.
|
|
|
D. Independent Practice-
1.Assignment to create a simple office floor plan.
2.Assignment to create door and window blocks
Encourage students to work on the assignments at home and in the open
lab and ask questions |
|
|
E. Accommodations (Differentiated Instruction)-
1.Instructor will be available to answer questions and for tutoring
in the office hours outlined in the syllabus
2. Additional assignments are available for the students who have
completed the assigned coursework.

7. Evaluation-
|
Evaluate if the students are getting the course content by the questions

in their drawings and change lesson plan accordingly. |
|
|
8. Teacher Reflection-
|
See if the particular style of lecture worked for majority of students.
If not modify the lecture to accommodate all students. Take students
