SHS1 Manufacturing Engineering · Semester 1 Week 11: Design and Drawing for Manufacture

Lesson notes

Learning Objectives

Indicator: 1.2.1.LI.1 - Demonstrate the use of drawing instruments in product design.

By the end of the lesson, learners can:

Identify at least eight drawing instruments by name and state the specific use of each one.
Demonstrate the correct handling and care of drawing instruments when setting up a drawing sheet on a drawing board.
Draw accurate borderlines and a title block on a drawing sheet using the Tee-square, set squares, scale rule and pencils.
Explain how the proper use of drawing instruments contributes to quality and accuracy in product design.
Critique their own and others’ drawing sheets constructively, giving at least one strength and one area for improvement.

Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

Talk for Learning: Through questioning, ask learners to bring drawing instruments (such as pencils, protractor, compass, divider, set squares, clippers, Tee-square, drawing board, drawing sheet, eraser, French curves, scale rule, circle and ellipse templates, etc.) to class and let learners identify them and their uses.
Practice-Based Learning: Let learners practice the use of their drawing instruments to set out drawing sheets on the drawing board and draw boarder lines and Title blocks. Learners display their drawing for others to critique.
Teaching and Learning Materials:
