C..A.D 1,or computer aided drafting, is a course at southwestern high school that is is available to grades 9-12..During the first marking period of this class, you will learn some basic skills on how to hand draw pre-made mechanical drawings. This part of the class, for me anyway, was the hardest part of the course, but still enjoyable if you don't fall behind.For the second marking period, you will dive into the actual computer aided drafting part of this class using two soft wares called Auto CAD, and Inventor. I really enjoyed both of these software programs, and I do believe learning the skill of drafting will be a help to me down the road. After completing all of CAD and Inventor drawings, you will dive into 3D printing.You are allowed to 3D print any object you like, as long as it is school appropriate and is in a 3D printing extension.
Likes/Dislikes about the course: I had a lot of likes about this class. I really enjoyed having Mr. Zeroth as my teacher, I enjoyed the computer aided drafting part, and I even enjoyed hand drawing even though I wasn't the best at it..Mr.. Zeroth is a fantastic teacher, he teaches you very well on everything you need to accomplish, he helps whenever you need help, and he is all around a great teacher to have. The Computer aided drafting part for me was very enjoyable, because I was actually good at it unlike the hand drawings. The computer aided drafting part of this course was one of my favorites also, because learning how other people out in the world use Auto CAD, and Inventor really peaked my interest to become very efficient at them in case one day I have to use them for my own work,Finally,I enjoyed the hand drawing aspect of this class. The hand drawing aspect of this class would be very enjoyable for someone who was very efficient at it, and for someone like myself who wasn't the greatest at it. believe the hand drawing is fun,because you get to learn about how times were before things like Auto CAD,Inventor,and so many more CAD programs.I have no dislikes in this course except Mr.Zeroth's music.
