TEXTBOOK:
Engineering Graphics with SOLIDWORKS 2021, David Planchard
ISBN: 97816305714079, Publisher:
Required: Straight Edge Tool, graph paper
Optional: Student Edition of SolidWorks 2021
After completing this course, the student will be able to demonstrate knowledge of the following topics with 70% accuracy as evaluated by the engineering faculty:
In order to receive your AC Connect Email, you must log in through AC Connect at https://acconnect.actx.edu .
If you are an active staff or faculty member according to Human Resources, use "Exchange". All other students, use "AC Connect (Google) Email".
Students are expected to behave in the classroom in a manner that is supportive of the learning environment. Behaviors that are not supportive include, but are not limited to: tardiness/leaving early; electronic device noises; texting or using electronic devices for non-course related activities during the lecture; talking during the lecture; abusive, offensive, and/or disrespectful language or demeanor toward AC faculty, staff, students, and/or Amarillo College property.
In order to receive credit for a course, all material listed on the syllabus must be covered. The instructor sets the pace to ensure that these requirements are met. Complaining about the pace will not result in less material being covered.
Students who fail to comply with the standards outlined in the syllabus and/or AC’s Student Rights & Responsibilities document will be subject to disciplinary action which may include, but is not limited to: removal from the classroom; consultation with the Math & Engineering Department Chair and/or other AC authority; withdrawal from the course and/or Amarillo College.
The final grades of A (90-100), B (80-89), C (70-79), D (60-69), and F (below 60) will be computed as the average of the earned grades as follows:
|
CW & HWQuiz |
20% |
|
Life Long Learning Activities |
10% |
|
Design Project |
10% |
|
Major Exams (3 @ 15%) |
45% |
| Final Exam | 15% |
Expect to have weekly assignements. When given, quizzes will be done before the first 20 minutes of class to promote attendance and cannot be made up so please be on time. I will drop a total of three assignment/quiz grades at the end of the semester.
All hand drawn work must be submitted in class. Hand drawn work shall be presented on engineering (quadrille), white printer/copier or lined notebook paper. All hand drawn work must be done neatly using a pencil. If the work cannot be read, I will not grade it, and a grade of zero (0) will be given for the assignment. Collaboration between students is allowed but EACH STUDENT must turn in an ORIGINAL, COMPLETE assignment.Details of the assignments along with the due date will be provided in class and may be found in Black Board.
You must attend class to learn about course content, complete assignements and collaborate with classmates on the design project. The textbook and required supplies must be brought to class since most assignments are identified in the textbook.
Textbook Assignments:
Assignments from the textbook will be provided as handouts in class.
Erase neatly; presentation of your is important. If I cannot read your work, it will not be graded.
As an engineer, you will need to continue lifelong learning throughout your career. You will attend workshops, tour work sites, interview clients, among other duties. To support the goal of lifelong learning outside of the classroom, the Engineering Department will provide opportunities for activities including, but not limited to: club meetings, community service, meetings with advisors/mentors, independent projects such as preparation of a possible schedule to complete your degree, and tours to broaden your education. Currently there are plans to provide at least 16 opportunities and you must complete 4 activities; make plans to do one (1) activity each month during the semester to avoid the stress of doing them all in the last week of class. Providing the evidence of your participation in all four activities will count as 10% toward your final grade. You only need to do 4 activities per semester since the same activities should be used for all your engineering classes. However, be sure to submit a copy of your evidence to each of your engineering professors.
You will be required to work in a group where you will complete work as a team member and/or a team lead. The 8-step engineering design process that is taught in ENGR1201 will be utilized. You will team with your Graphics classmates to deliver a technical drawing and/or 3D prototype. The Graphics Team Lead will communicate with the Intro Team Lead to ensure the project's statement of work (SOW) is fully understood. The project SOW will be provided in class, and concepts taught in class will be incorporated into the design project throughout the semester. The project counts the same as a major exam so be sure to make time to engage.
Each exam will count as 15% of your final grade. The calendar has a placeholder for each exam so be sure to make time to complete the assessment during the required timeframe. Absence from an exam will incur a zero (0) unless the student has received prior approval from the instructor or there is an emergency that could not be circumvented. Students who must miss an exam because of College or business-related activities should notify the instructor before the absence occurs.
****Note: Tests will be administered in the the Math Testing Center and/or the classroom. When an exam is given in Black Board, be sure to pay attention to the timer since once the time expires, you will not be able to submit your test.
If you have been found to have cheated on a test including helping another student cheat a grade of zero (0) may be given for exam as well as a grade of F for the entire course.
Attendance is essential for successful completion of the course. In order to promote consistent attendance, classwork is regularly assigned and in-class quizzes may periodically be given. Late work will not be accepted and in-class quizzes may not be made up. Assignments may be submitted early and exams taken in advance when absences are due to a scheduled event. Be sure to communicate with the instructor in advance when scheduled events prevent class attendance.
There will be a Syllabus Assignment Due In Class on Feb. 2, 2022. If you do not come to class prior to the Feb. 2, 2022, you will be administratively dropped from the class.
Please remember the deadline for dropping a 16 week class at Amarillo College during the Spring 2022 semester is April 21. If you stop attending class and do not officially drop the course by this deadline, and your final average is below a 60, you will receive an F for the course. Below is the projected course calendar; any updates to the detailed calendar can be found on Black Board.
