Course Objectives: | This course introduces the student to the infrastructure of objects, mechanisms and energy sources deeply through lectures, class discussions, two quizzes, an assignment and a final exam. It will provide the student with: - The experience of assembling, disassembling and analyzing objects. - A general understanding of circular movement, linear movement, ex-centric movement and their relationship. - The ability to identify and differentiate the elements of simple mechanics. - The ability to differentiate, analyze and compare various power sources. - The knowledge of identifying and explain renewable energy sources. - The ability to identify various sensors and switches and apply in simple circuits - Evaluate material properties through research and testing - Select materials for a given art and design project, based on research and testing - Present a material strategy, in response to a brief, for a given art and design project. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; 1. To identify assembling and disassembling procedures of objects in order 2. To explain the circular movement, linear movement and ex-centric movement 3. To differentiate the elements of simple mechanics 4. To apply the principles of simple mechanics to the new design of objects 5. To compare various power sources, 6. To support the mechanics and working principles of objects with the renewable energy sources. 7. To evaluate material properties through research and testing 8. To select materials for a given art and design project, based on research and testing 9. To present a material strategy, in response to a brief, for a given art and design project. 10. Investigate 3D materials, techniques and processes to produce work; in response to a brief 11. Present 3D outcomes through display and interaction 12. Evaluate outcomes and working practices to inform future development. |
This course investigates the basic principles of mechanics, structure and form. Through the combination of lectures, investigations, and experiments, students develop simplified representations of complex systems. The skills of freehand drawing, mechanical drawing and three-dimensional models are employed and developed during the project sequence. |
