2.- Description and General Objectives.

Once initiated in Computer Aided Design during the first year, students have the

opportunity to deepen into three dimensional drawing and parametric design of

mechanical industrial objects, in order to integrate them with other computer

applications, word processors and spreadsheets, for their own projects.

3D CAD for Engineering, besides the concepts and tools acquired and developed

during the first year, will serve as a basis for the graphical representation in most areas

in Mechanical Engineering.

General Objectives are as follows:

- Deepen in the concept and work methodology of 3D Aided Design and, specifically

the one related to industrial applications.

- Get students to use a parametric design software confidently, understanding the

most important processes in three-dimensional mechanical design, and



3

automatically generating blue prints and documentation from them.

- Get accustomed to look up manuals, analyzing, applying and integrating data in all

project phases.

- Integrate drawings with other applications in order to generate technical

documentation for projects.

- Work in teams to adapt to nowadays working realities.

3.- Previous requirements

In order to be able to successfully follow the subject’s program, students should have or at

least acquire prior knowledge on:

- Commands invoking.

- Data entry procedures.

- Coordinate systems.

8.- Learning assessment

Assessment criteria

ASSESSMENT CRITERIA AND GRADING

Assessment tools Percentage

T1 In-class practices

Synchronous (On-site or via Florida Oberta/Microsoft Teams) 20%

T2 Deliverable tasks


T3 Projects


Assessment system

The learning assessment is carried out in a summative way through in-class assignments in

which students will show their acquired knowledge. Five grading criteria are to be

established:

Class participation and learning.

Planning, development and on-time delivery of the assignments.

Theoretical concepts addressed as competences.

Methodology in problem-solving.

Overall quality and presentation of the assignments.



8

The final grade will result from the assessment of the following three tools:

T1. In-class attendance (20%)

Attendance is mandatory and will be assessed as well as efficiency.

T2. Deliverable tasks (30%)

Task planning, development and resolution, as much as in time delivery will be assessed.

Tasks are to be delivered on the same day they are undertaken, any delay on the delivery

means a reduction on the marks between 10 and 50% depending on different cases. At

most, tasks may be delivered within a week from the date they were supposed to.

T3. Projects delivery (50%)

At the end of the module, individual projects developed throughout the course will be

delivered in the shape and timeframe communicated to the students. Acquired

knowledge, applied methodology as well as overall quality and presentation will be

assessed.

In order to pass the subject it is required to obtain a grade equal or above 5 points.

Should classes take place on-line due to sanitary causes derived from Covid 19, the

following changes on the subject assessment will take place during this period: On site

attendance will not be scored, thus that 20% of the assessment will be divided amongst the

other two assessment tools. Therefore, deliverable task will take 40% of the score and

Projects will be worth 60%.

9.- Specific actions proposal

Students who are unable to attend regularly to class due to justified causes, including a

case of demonstrated vulnerability to Covid 19, must get in contact with the responsible

professor before the end of the third week in order to define their assessment. This may be

adapted to the student’s circumstances and a written document will define the agreement

reached between the teacher and the student.

Although it is the official book, it appears to be somewhat confusing and makes

references to previous publications, therefore incomplete.

Not available

Dibujo industrial. Conjuntos y despieces.

organization, it contains solved examples and some others to be solved, as well as

catalogs of commercial elements.



Fundamentos de ingeniería gráfica. Félez Mindán, Jesús (editor).

11. Specific rules about the subject

Punctuality is requested.

It is not allowed to use cellphones, nor computing devices such as laptops, tablets,

etc.

In the computer rooms you are to use exclusively resources from the subject and

task. Any non-necessary access to the internet shall be penalized.

Due respect to professors and classmates is a must.

The correct use of the center facilities and installations is also a must.

If classes cannot take place on-site due to sanitary causes derived from Covid 19, they are

to be carried out on-line synchronously through the Microsoft Teams application, following

the usual class schedule.

Recommendations in order to successfully follow the subject while on-line:

Students must pay attention to their e-mail, since important announcements take

place by this method. Such announcements will remain in the section


http://www.traceparts.com/

http://www.thingiverse.com/

http://grabcad.com/



11

Announcements and updates from the web page of the subject, on Florida Oberta

platform.

Students must have Microsoft Teams installed in order to follow on-line classes

synchronously and make sure to properly receive all messages.

During on-line class, students may make questions using a microphone.

Subject content, as well as proposed problems and complimentary materials will be

available for downloading in Florida Oberta platform.

12. Office hours for students

Attention to students (either teaching or tutoring) may be on-site, synchronous on-line,

asynchronous or a combination of both, depending on the current sanitary situation in the

moment of the particular requirements by the student.

In order to carry out the online mode, the several tools Florida makes available for students

and teachers is to be utilized: Florida Oberta and other tools coming with Office 365 license,

such as the case of Microsoft Teams.

Office-hours appointments will be arranged previously via e-mail. In order to study the

possibility of arranging a meeting on another day or at a different time, schedule availability

should be consulted via e-mail.

In case on-site attendance is not possible, the following corporate means of communication

may be used:

- E-mail: This is the main way of communication with the faculty. Availability must

be consulted this way in order to book a meeting (whether on-line or face-to-face)

- Florida Oberta: This is where all the data regarding the subject is located, as

well as all the materials for teaching, class work delivery, carrying out on-line

exams or quizzes, etc.

- Microsoft Teams: It allows us for synchronous on-line communication, whether

between all class or for individual tutorials.

Florida University students will only be able to access and use these corporate tools by the

means of their corporate e-mail address @floridauniversitaria.es, furthermore, they must



12

use this address as the mean of e-mail communication, both with teachers and any other

kind of service or other institution staff .
