Students were studying Architecture and Construction
as part of the Exploring Careers program for 6th grade. They were to use an interactive website to
learn how floor plans are drawn using CAD.
The students used http://www.smallblueprinter.com/ to accomplish this task.
The students used the computers in my lab and learned
how to navigate the internet and install printers for their individual computers.
The students were given a lesson on floor plans and a
short demonstration on the web site.
They then had to complete a given floor plan and then develop one of
their own.
The lesson and unit were very successful and the
students learned a lot about Architecture and what Computer Aided Drafting is
used for.
