H COMPUTER AIDED DRAWING AND DESIGN (CADD) 2 (Grades 11-12) 

HONORS COMPUTER AIDED DRAWING AND DESIGN (CADD) 2 (Grades 11-12) 
(EDI6602)  

This course is designed to further explore the world of drafting and design, covering three-dimensional (3D) drawing fundamentals.  It examines the 3D capabilities of the latest and most sophisticated release of Autodesk products to date. For many years designers have been taught to think spatially yet have only been trained to draw two-dimensionally.  With 3D CADD software, this is no longer the case. Specific topics include an overview of UCS, 3D drawing and editing, and constructing wire frames. The course teaches commands needed to produce construction planes, 3D faces, 3D solid models and multiple 3D views. Additional discussions include using blocks, layers, mouse and keyboard editing for 3D geometric creation.  Prerequisite: CADD 1 and teacher recommendation. This is a Level 1 IB Career Programme Course.
