1.1. Aims of the course
The course has as main objectives, on the one hand, to develop the capacity of spatial vision of the student, and on the other hand, to transmit skills that allow him to express accurately and clearly graphic solutions in the different representation systems.
In addition, the knowledge and management of the Computer Aided Design (CAD) will provide students communication tools to be used at all stages of their professional life.
1.2. Context and importance of this course in the degree
As a course in the first year of engineering degree in industrial management, its approach is similar to the study of other basic disciplines common to other degrees in engineering. In particular, through the knowledge of the various techniques of graphic representation, both by traditional methods and by the use of computer aided design software, the student will be able to communicate in an international language. In addition, the development of spatial vision will allow students to represent devices, distribute spaces and interpret information within their future professional environment.
1.3. Recommendations to take this course
To follow the course, the student should have a general knowledge of the contents of the course of technical drawing of baccalaureate. In particular, they should know the constructions of: triangles, quadrilaterals, regular polygons, technical curves, conical and cyclic curves.
2.1. Competences
Passing this course the student will be more competent for….
1.- Specific competences.
- Capacity for spatial vision and knowledge of graphic representation techniques whether through traditional methods of metric geometry and descriptive geometry or through computer-assisted design applications.
2.- Generic competences
- Ability to use techniques, skills and tools necessary to practise engineering
- Students have developed the learning skills necessary to undertake further studies with a high degree of autonomy.
2.2. Learning goals
- Students know and apply the different techniques of graphic representation for parts and assemblies: Sketch, normalization, orthographic projection system, perspectives and CAD.
- Students know and apply the current regulations of engineering drawing correctly.
- Students are capable of carrying out, identifying and interpreting the information contained in the drawings of different activities within the engineering sector.
2.3. Importance of learning goals
- Students dominate the resolution of the graphic problems that can be posed in the engineering
- Students develop skills and abilities that allow them to express with precision, clarity, objectivity and universality graphic solutions.
- Students acquire abstraction capacity to be able to view an object from different positions of space.
3. Assessment (1st and 2nd call)
3.1. Assessment tasks (description of tasks, marking system and assessment criteria)
SPECIALIZATION IN DEFENCE
The student must demonstrate that he has assimilated the expected teaching through the following assessment activities:
a) Theoretical and Practical Exams
The Theoretical and Practical Exams evaluate in a general way: the precision and cleanliness in the layout; the dimensioning and scaling of the representation; the knowledge and application of current regulations, etc.
Throughout the quarter and in a manner that is coordinated with the rest of the subjects, a written exam will take place, which will correspond with the first block (B1) of the subject matter (around 50% of the theoretical and practical contents of the subject). Obtaining a grade of 4 and above in this evaluation will exempt the student of repeating the first block (B1) of the subject matter in the final examination of the course. Should this be the case, the student must participate in the examination of the second block (B2) of the theoretical and practical subject matter of the course (around 50% of the theoretical and practical contents of the subject). On the other hand, if the grade is below 4 in the written exam throughout the quarter, then the student must attend the final examination of the first call of the examination, which consists of blocks B1 and B2.
The final grade (FG) of the theoretical and practical examinations as a 10-grade score, will be the following:
FG=0.5 * B1 grade + 0.5 * B2 grade
In order to pass the course in the first call of the subject, the student must obtain a grade equal to 5 or higher.
The grades for each of the two blocks separately are not maintained for the rest of the calls of the present academic course, nor for the next ones. Therefore, the final Theoretical and Practical Exam of the second call (August) will not have an explicit separation of the two blocks.
b) DAO test
During the quarter, there will be a DAO test. This test will evaluate the modelling of the pieces, the definition of sketches, the complete definition of assemblies, the correct execution of plans, etc, with the use of the DAO tools.
Obtaining a grade of 5 or above will exempt the student from taking a DAO test in the final examination. If the grade of the DAO test in the first call is equal to or above 5, the grade will be maintained for the rest of the calls of the academic course, but in none of the calls in the next course.
The final grade of the subject will be a weighted average of the Theoretical and Practical Examination (minimum weight of 70%) and the DAO test (maximum weight 30%).
4. Methodology, learning tasks, syllabus and resources
4.1. Methodological overview
SPECIALIZATION IN BUSINESS
The learning process that is designed for this subject is based on the following:
- Lectures: theoretical activities conducted by the teacher, so that the theoretical support of the subject is given, highlighting the major issues, structuring them on chapters and/or sections and connecting them to each other.
- Classroom practice work/seminars/workshops: Theoretical discussion activities or practice work preferably performed in the classroom and requiring high student participation
- Lab Practice work: The total group of masterclasses will be divided into several groups according to the number of students enrolled, but never more than 20 students so that smaller groups are formed. CAD-CAE Practical Activities with the relevant software will be made in the Technical Office classroom.
- Individual tutorials: These are made on a one-to-one basis, at the department. They aim to help to solve problems that are the students might have, particularly those which for several reasons cannot attend group tutorials or need more personalized attention. These tutorials may be face-to-face or virtual
SPECIALIZATION IN DEFENCE
During the masterclasses, the most general and important concepts of engineering drawing are presented by using real examples, so that students can identify similar factors in the exercises performed during the course.
The learning process for this course was designed based on the encouragement of the students’ continual work, applying the theoretical contents in practical exercises and projects, which are completed individually or in groups, during the practical lessons.
4.2. Learning tasks
The course includes the following learning tasks:
SPECIALIZATION IN BUSINESS
The program that the students are offered to help them achieve the expected results involves the following activities which involve the active participation of the students, so that, to achieve the learning outcomes (Considering the experimental level is high, which means a 2h a week for Theory, 2h for practice work and 6 for other activities), no redundancy intended with the above mentioned, the following activities will be developed
- Lectures (Classroom 30h): The concepts and procedures of the subject will be developed and practical examples as support will be developed. Also, problems and case studies will be done to complement the theoretical concepts studied
- Laboratory practice work (30h): Students will be divided into several groups not bigger than 20 students / being monitored by the teacher and they will develop the concepts and procedures in CAD-CAE
- Tutorials: Monitored autonomous activities: Although they will rather have a mixed nature between face-to-face and non-class tuition they have been considered separately and will be focused mainly to seminars and tutorials under the supervision of the teacher.
- Personal Study: Assimilation of the concepts and procedures for a proper learning process
- Assessment test: Individual test where the student shows his level of understanding and competence on the subject.
SPECIALIZATION IN DEFENCE
1. Masterclasses (20 h): classroom sessions where the theoretical concepts are exposed and explained to the students.
2. Practical classes (20 h): classroom sessions where the contents learned during the masterclasses are applied.
3. Computer lab sessions (20 h): in-class sessions with required attendance. During these sessions, with the help of a computer, the student learns to use parametric software to model in 3D.
4. Group or independent work (85 h): the part of the course where the student should assimilate the knowledge explained and worked during the sessions with required attendance through their autonomous study.
During the semester, they are faced with:
- Tasks related to each of the topics explained and subsequent correction of some of them in class.
- Modeling of a CAD assembly: parts, assembly and planes.
5. Assessment (7 h): evaluation of the entire course curriculum (attendance required).
- Theoretical and practical exam (5 h).
- CAD Exam (2 h). Management of the software and application to the course.
