2. Objectives and learning outcomes
2.1 Objectives
The aim of the course is to develop problem identification and problem-solving skills, as well as to establish and enhance students' spatial visualization abilities and ensure confident graphical communication. Within the course, students become familiar with two representation systems: the perpendicular parallel projection system and dimensioned representation.
During the semester students get acquainted with the following topics: imaging and reconstruction in Monge's two projection plane imaging systems, representation of space elements in a general and special position, catching, visibility, transformation of field elements, intersection tasks, intersection of solids with plane surfaces into rotation surfaces, levelling, interpenetration of solids with planes and rotation surfaces, shadow editing, line moving generated surfaces which can not be expanded.
2.2 Learning outcomes
Upon successful completion of this subject, the student:
A. Knowledge
1. Represents spatial elements in different projection systems; performs basic constructions, inserts a spatial element into plane.
2. Creates a new view of a flat-face solid and of a rotating surface, represent it visually; uses the transformation to determine the shape dimensionsDetermines the dimensions of shapes through transformations.
3. Draws the intersection of the general and specially positioned planes, of a straight line and a plane, and of straight and curve surfaces; constructs the real surfaces of planes of different and identical inclination roofs.
4. Plans the intersection with a general plane of a plane-shaped solid, of a plane of rotation, and rotates the sectioned surface into an image plane.
5. Constructs the intersection of plane-shaped solid and curved surfaces, developes the exposed surface into a plane
6. Understands the shadow of the space elements in shadow editing, self-shadow, shadowy edges of solids, shadows to other elements and to the soil.
7. Edits the representation of perpendicular geometric elements in the dimensioned tasks, solves angular tasks, represent space elements parallel to a plane of projection.
8. Represents spatial elements in a graphical dimensioned representation system, interprets the inclination of the planes, creates landscaping tasks on smooth terrain, knows the filling and cutting of landscaping
B. Skills
1. Communicates through drawings.
2. Routinely applies basic constructions.
3. Determines visibility easily based on spatial perception.
4. Assembles the steps of complex constructions through logical thinking.
5. Applies the practiced construction methods in home assignments.
6. Recognizes incorrect solutions and can explain the correct ones.
7. Uses technical terminology appropriately.
8. Evaluates differences between solutions effectively.
C. Attitudes
1. Strives to complete tasks to the best of their ability at a high standard.
2. Cooperates with other course members and professors.
3. Expands geometric and technical drawing knowledge in the process of learning, provides the editing steps with the terms of the construction and justifies its correctness.
4. Aims for precise constructions and error-free drawings.
D. Autonomy and Responsibility
1. Carries out the specified design tasks/home assignments individually.
2. Is open to well-founded critical remarks.
3. In certain situations, e.g. in practical classes, helps the editing process on the basis of recognized rules.
4. Presents her/his opinion with justification.
