| Aim: The purpose of the course is to provide knowledge of how to use the computer as a design tool during the design process. The student will learn how forms are shaped and developed using various computer programs in combination with other aids for visual representation. The student will acquire greater experience of product analysis in which a variety of aspects are illustrated and evaluated. The purpose of the project format is to combine the many components of the curriculum into a functioning unit and provide experiences of various steps of the product development process. In this manner the student will increase skills necessary for evaluating and formulating problems, structuring problems and selecting working methods, testing and experimenting, presenting ideas using different media, analyzing and evaluating, as well as completing the planning process, to achieve a comprehensive material for presentation. |
