=Welcome to the MVHS CAD Wikispace. = **This is the wikispace for Semester 2, Year 2010** Here you will be posting your work and commenting on your progress. I will be grading your submissions to the site and monitoring all edits and comments so remember to be appropriate. After all, the internet allows ANYONE to see your work. Make a good impression. === Term 4 will require you do post work from the book examples you have been doing in class. Make sure that you post the proper pictures to your own page listed on the left. You will also need to respond to some questions in writing on your wiki. ===

** CAD DRAFTING ASSIGNMENTS **

** Don't forget that you will need to do the write ups for each assignment by answering the following questions in paragraph form. Try typing in a word processor like Word first, spell checking it and then pasting it in the wiki. **  *What have you been working on this drawing compared to the last drawing?
 * What skills have you learned and how will those skills help you in the future of this course?
 * How could those skills be applied to the real world? What objects from real life do you think are designed using these tools?
 * Explain a problem you may have run into with this assignment, and how you went about solving it?
 * In what ways were you successful and what did you do to be successful that you can use in the future?

Elements and Principles of Design in Fine Art In all art, there are certain elements that are used a basic vocabulary for discussion. Whether it is in pottery, painting, drawing, computer design, fashion, or architecture, we need to be able to discuss art using the language of art. No one wants to be overheard in an art museum saying "I really like the whatcha-ma-call-it in that thingamabob!" Below are some resources to help you learn what that basic vocabulary is and in class we will discuss how that can be applied to your architectural designs.
