OBJECTIVE 2: UNDERSTAND THE METHODS OF PATTERN DEVELOPMENT FOR SIMPLE GEOMETRICAL SHAPES 6 2.1 Understand the principles and methods of surface development. 2.2 Develop simple 3D geometric shapes i.e. cylinders, cones and pyramids. Explain the principles and methods of surface development. how to create simple 3D geometric shapes i.e. cylinders, cones and pyramids. 7 how to create simple 3D forms within a specialist field architecture, 5
interior design, construction etc. GENERAL OBJECTIVE 3: DEDUCE THE INTERSECTION LINES FOR INTERSECTED CYLINDERS. 8 3.1 Draw the intersection line of all cases of intersected cylinders (Equal right cylinders, unequal right cylinders, equal other than 90 cylinders and unequal other than 90 cylinders. Explain and demonstrate how to draw the intersection line of all cases of intersected cylinders (Equal right cylinders, unequal right cylinders, equal other than 90 cylinders and unequal other than 90 cylinders. Ask students to draw the intersection line of all cases of intersected cylinders 9 Revise how to draw the intersection line of all cases of intersected cylinders Support and revise as required to complete 6
practical exercises. GENERAL OBJECTIVE 4: INTERPRET AND DEDUCE THE TECHNICAL DRAWINGS IN A SPECIALIST FIELD. 10 4.1 Identify the main features of the six views of an object. 11 4.2 Draw the three views of an object in first and third angle projections. 12 4.2 Draw the three views of an object in first and third angle projections. Explain the main features of the six views of an object or space within a specialist field. Provide a practical exercise within a specialist field. Ask students to draw the three views of an object/ space in first and third angle projections. Continue & support the practical exercise within a specialist field. Ask students to draw the three views of an object/ space in first and third angle projections. 7
