COURSE DESCRIPTION: Use parametric based mechanical design software for mechanical assembly design and drafting. TEXT: Autodesk Inventor, published by CAD-CIM Publisher, author: Sham Tickoo ISBN: 9781932709490 MATERIALS REQUIRED FOR COURSE: All students will be required to purchase the following materials to be used for course: 1 100M or 250 M zip disk. Writing materials (notebook & pen) COURSE OBJECTIVES: Use parametric design techniques to design, assemble, evaluate and render mechanical assemblies; develop orthographic drawings, auxiliary views and details from three-dimensional models. 1. KNOWLEDGE: 2. SKILLS: a. Understand parametric modeling principals b. Analyze a Solid Model for Area, Material, Properties and Mass. c. Understanding of solid module's and parametric constraints commands. a. To be able to build and edit a solid model using parametric processes. b. To convert solid model to working drawing by using Inventors commands and options. 3. ATTITUDE/BEHAVIORS: a. The student will learn to follow instructions as presented in the classroom. b. The student will show respect for others. SCANS SKILLS: The Department of Labor has identified skill sets that U.S. employers want most in entry level employees. It is our commitment to prepare every student with the knowledge and skills needed to succeed in today’s dynamic environment. Toward this end the following skills will be included in this course: Exercises leadership: To be able to motivate others through the communication of ideas to justify a position. Uses computer to process information: use a computer graphics program, i.e., AutoCAD, to prepare presentation graphics. Maintain/troubleshoot technologies: Students will be presented with a problem in which they will be required to use specific team-building concepts to develop a work-group. All work in this course will be prepared on a computer and it will be necessary for the student. Software customization will require student to maintain and troubleshoot changes made to insure proper function of the software. Evaluation of these skills will be based on the success of each student’s presentation and the demonstration of system customization. COURSE EVALUATION PROCEDURE: The student will be evaluated and receive a final grade based upon the following criteria: Laboratory work consisting of assigned technical drawing problems. A minimum of 2 tests: (a mid-term and a final examination): NOTE: - Individual instructors may schedule more tests if desired Class and laboratory attendance, active participation in class, professional attitude and growth in terms of technical skill development and teamwork within the laboratory environment shall be taken into consideration. GRADING PROCEDURE: A = 90 –100 B = 80 – 89 C = 70 – 79 D = 60 – 69 F = below 59 The drawing portion of the above evaluation criteria shall be based on the layout, dimensional accuracy, neatness, and timely completion. LATE ASSIGNMENT POLICY: Students are encouraged to turn assignments in on time if at all possible. This allows the instructor to grade the work, return it to the student and the student use the feedback as a learning tool. Revised 6/30/2016 Page 2 of 4 MAKE-UP TEST/PROJECT POLICY: The student must request a make-up test and it should be scheduled at the earliest possible date following the quiz (or mid-term) missed. NO make-up test is given for the final examination. EXTRA CREDIT: Extra credit work is offered only to assist students that that have a grade range of “D” or “F” at the mid-term break. This work cannot be substituted for regular assignments and can only raise the final grade to a maximum of a “C”. STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES Any student with a documented disability (e.g. physical, learning, psychiatric, vision, hearing, etc) who needs to arrange reasonable accommodations for the classroom and/or testing must contact the appropriate HCC Disability Support Service (DSS) Counselor at the beginning of each semester. Faculty is authorized to provide only the accommodations requested by the Disability Support Services Office. Students who are requesting classroom and/or testing accommodations must first contact the DSS office for assistance prior to the beginning of each semester: Disability Support Services Offices: Northwest: 713.718.5422 CLASS ATTENDANCE: You are expected to attend all lecture classes and labs. You are also responsible for all materials covered in either lecture or lab. In the case of your absence, you must contact the instructor to obtain make-up assignments or arrange make-up testing, either of which can be distributed at the instructor’s discretion. Class attendance is checked daily. The instructor has the authority to drop you from the class for excessive absence. You may be dropped from the class and get an F grade if you are absent more than 12.5% of the instruction hours (lecture and lab). For example: A 12.5% of 96-hour course, meeting twice per week for 3 hours per class meeting equals 12 hours. If you are absent more than 4 class meetings, you may drop. WITHDRAWAL - It is your responsibility to withdraw from the class if you cannot complete it. Failure to do so will result in an F grade. Check calendar for the official last day to withdraw. Note: Although it is your responsibility to officially withdraw from a class, please discuss with your instructor first. Consistent class attendance is very important. However, if you have to miss a class for a valid reason, you instructor may be able to help you catch up with the class. Please let your instructor knows as soon as possible if you have to miss a class. Valid reason is decided on a case by case basis. Departments and programs governed by accreditation or certification standards may have different attendance policies. RELIGIOUS HOLIDAYS: If you observe a religious holiday and miss class, you must notify your instructor in writing two weeks in advance to arrange to take a test or make up an assignment. A religious holiday is "a holy day observed by a religion whose place of worship is exempt from property taxation under Section 11.20, Tax Code." SCHOLASTIC DISHONESTY: Students are responsible for conducting themselves with honor and integrity in fulfilling course requirements. College System Officials may initiate penalties and/or disciplinary proceedings against a student accused of scholastic dishonesty. "Scholastic dishonesty" includes, but is not limited to, cheating on a test, plagiarism, and collusion. "Cheating" on a test includes: Copying from another student's test paper; Using materials during a test that are not authorized by the person giving the test; Collaborating with another student during a test without authority; Knowingly using, buying, selling, stealing, transporting, or soliciting in whole or part the contents of an unadministered test; Bribing another person to obtain a test that is administered. By….. "Plagiarism" means the misuse of another's work and the deliberate incorporation of that work into work you offer for credit. "Collusion" means the unauthorized collaboration with another person in preparing work offered for credit. Determination of scholastic dishonesty will be at the discretion of the instructor. Reference the following web link for additional information: http://www.hccs.com “Notice: Students who repeat a course three or more times may soon face significant tuition/fee increases at HCC and other Texas public colleges and universities. If you are considering course withdrawal because you are not earning passing grades, confer with your instructor/counselor as early as possible about your study habits, reading and writing homework, test-taking skills, attendance, course participation, and opportunities for tutoring or other assistance that might be available.” Revised 6/30/2016 Page 3 of 4 Revised 6/30/2016 Page 4 of 4 Course Schedule Selected Topics in Drafting (Autodesk Inventor) DFTG 2335 Week 1 CAD’s application Preview of AutoDesk Inventor Getting Acquainted: Menus/File types Part file – ipt Assembly file – iam.
