Chapter 5- Mechanical CAD Quizzes






Week 6

Monday- Today we went on moodle and did AutoCAD quizzes to prepare us for our upcoming test on Friday. There were all sorts of questions on the basics of the program, and we did Chapter 5 quiz 1-5

Tuesday-Today I continued to do the quizzes that I did not finish yesterday and then I printscreened them and put them onto my blog. We also did a review at the front of the class and we got out drawing excersises back today.

Wednesday-Was not here

Thursday- We started the class off with review for the test tommorrow and then we worked on our own personal logo.

Friday- Today we had a AutoCAD test that had about 60 multiple choice. It was on the basics of CAD, then we updated our blogs for evaluation

Week 5

Monday- We were intruduced to a game called cargo bridge and we had to get as far as we could in about a half an hour and then we got marked on that score. This game was challenging and fun, we had to make bridges in a bunch of different scenarios and they had to be strong enough.

Tuesday- Today we got different Cad drawings for evaluation and we started working on them, I did not get far I did a couple of circles and that was all. Mr.D was not here today

Wednesday- Today we played the cargo bridge game again. Alot of the students were not here so we were allowed to do whatever we wanted.

Thursday- Today we worked on our final CAD challenge for our final mark. For must of the project I used TTR.

Friday- Today we continued to work on our CAD challenge and I need to start adding dimensions and then post it.

Week 4

Monday- Today we did a AutoCAD quiz on commands, then we did a lesson on polylines and then I finished up my 2.7 Drawing and posted it to my blogger.

Tuesday- Today we practiced doing technical drawings on paper, then we uploaded our unifinished work onto our blogger. We did cubes, circles and fron top and right views. We learned the difference between cylindrical and non cylindrical drawings.

Wednesday- Was not here today.

Thursday- Did a drawing booklet to practice my technical drawing. We had to find the lines that were missing in several drawings and also find the hidden lines as well.

Friday- Was not here today

GENEVA CAM- Drawing 7


This drawing was harder than most. We had to use the array command, line, circle, and snap tool. This drawing is 2.7 on the moodle link.
