- Computer Aided Drafting. Instructor's Guide. Henry, Michael A. Behavioral Objectives Computer Oriented Programs Drafting Learning Activities Lesson Plans Postsecondary Education Secondary Education This guide is intended for use in introducing students to the operation and applications of computer-aided drafting (CAD) systems. The following topics are covered in the individual lessons: understanding CAD (CAD versus traditional manual drafting and care of software and hardware); using the components of a CAD system (primary and other input devices and computer configuration); initializing a CAD system; using input devices (keyboards and auxiliary input devices); setting drawing parameters (setting page size and selecting scale, units, and font); storing and retrieving data; creating a drawing with a CAD system (terms related to drawing with CAD, basic entity insertion, secondary entity creation [cross-hatching], and drawing manipulation); text insertion (terminology for inserting text, and dimensions, notes, and ancillary text); editing existing drawings; using a CAD library, using output devices (printers, plotters, and laser printers); and exiting a CAD system (logging off). Each lesson contains some or all of the following: a statement of the scope of the unit, lesson objectives, an information assignment, suggested resources, an introduction, a lesson outline, a summary and conclusion, interaction items (questions to stimulate student interaction during the lesson), classroom and laboratory activities, and evaluation items. Appendixes include guides to using a disk operating system (DOS); the AUTOCAD, MATC CAD, and CADKEY software packages; a glossary; and a bibliography. (MN)
