Seward County Community College/Area Technical School
Course Syllabus

1. TITLE OF COURSE: EN1212 - Engineering Graphics II
2. COURSE DESCRIPTION:   2 credit hours consisting of 4 hours of lab per week.  The program is designed to prepare either men or women for more advanced drafting room practices in the drafting field over and beyond that offered in Engineering Graphics I.  Draftsmen’s activities primarily involve the translation of ideas, rough sketches, specifications, calculations and proposals of engineers, architects and designers into complete and accurate working plans for use in the engineering, research, construction, manufacturing or building trades.  Engineering Graphics II is an individualized study of advanced basic drafting techniques used to communicate ideas from a designer to the finished product.  The study is programmed to develop the student as a continuing process of more advanced drafting practices used in problem-solving situations with drafting drawings as the media for communication. For each unit of credit, a minimum of three hours per week with one of the hours for class and two hours for studying/preparation outside of class is expected. Prerequisite:  EN-1202 Engineering Graphics I.
3. PROGRAM AND DEPARTMENT MISSION STATEMENT: The Science Program at Seward County Community College provides opportunities to improve and enhance each student’s understanding and comprehension of the natural world through a variety of courses and experience to develop a scientifically literate citizen.
4. TEXTBOOK AND MATERIALS: Giesecke, Mitchell, Spencer, Hill, Loving, Dygdon, Engineering Graphics, McMillian & Co.
5. SCCC/ATS OUTCOMES: Students who successfully complete this course will demonstrate the ability to do the following SCCC Outcomes.
   • Outcome #1 Read with comprehension, be critical of what they read, and apply knowledge gained to real life situations.
   • Outcome #2 Communicate their ideas clearly and proficiently in writing, appropriately adjusting content and arrangement for varying audiences, purposes, and situations.
   • Outcome #3 Communicate their ideas clearly and proficiently in speaking, appropriately adjusting content and arrangement for varying audiences, purposes, and situations.
   • Outcome #4 Demonstrate mathematical skills using a variety of techniques and technologies.
   • Outcome #5 Demonstrate the ability to think critically by gathering facts, generating insights, analyzing data, and evaluating information.
   • Outcome #6 Exhibit skills in information and technological literacy.
6. COURSE OUTCOMES:
   • The student will learn to develop and complete engineering and architectural working drawing packages
   • The student will acquire knowledge in the reproduction and distribution process of completed and approved finished working drawings.
   • The student will have an opportunity to express him or her self in the areas of observation, planning, design and development.
   • The student will learn to work independently, in a group, or perhaps with one or two persons including the instructor to do research or problem solving techniques to better understand the end results of a drafting project.
   • The student will use preliminary and final sketches of proposed drawing, checking dimensions of parts, materials to be used, relation of one part to another, and the relation of various parts to the whole of the structure or object.
   • The student will learn a variety of ways and methods of presentation to best represent the integral parts of an individual part, sub-assembly of parts, or an assembly of parts.
   • The student will prepare clear, complete and accurate working plans and detail drawings from rough sketches or notes for engineering or manufacturing purposes, according to dimensions, tolerances and specifications.
   • The student will learn to make revisions, adjustments, or changes necessary or desired to complete a final project.

8. INSTRUCTIONAL METHODS:
   • Lecture: Topics are developed both from the background concepts and the problem-skill application.
   • Student Questions: Opportunity is given any time during lecture or lab for questions to be raised, discussed, and resolved over the material or the problem being developed.
   • Demonstrations: Models, visual aids, transparencies, etc., are used to convey and clarify ideas and solutions.
   • Assignments: Study of the text and problem-solving exercises in the form of hand-outs are required in order to involve the student regularly. Most of the lab exercises are solved on the drafting board using drafting machines and procedures in their solutions.
   • Examinations: Tests and quizzes are used to reinforce ideas and to emphasize important skills and techniques.
   • Drafting Assignments: A large percentage of the students’ final grade is completion of a certain number of hours and assignments working on the drafting boards solving numerous types of problems.
9. INSTRUCTIONAL AND RESOURCE MATERIALS:
   • Textbook and supplemental books in our drafting library.
   • Chalkboard used for presentations, demonstrations, and for lecture clarifications.
   • Overhead projector and screen are used for showing prepared transparencies on each unit taught.
   • Cassette and film strip presentations for certain unit development and demonstrations.
   • Charts and technical data through use of hand-out materials for individual students use.
10. METHODS OF ASSESSMENT: Methods of assessing the general course outcomes and the specific course competencies include: Required number of hours to complete the course. The course is taught in a separate location away from the college campus, therefore, a required number of hours is necessary to complete the course.
    • SCCC/ATS Outcome #1 will be assessed and measured by demonstrating the skill learned, post-testing, and critical evaluation of work performed.
    • SCCC/ATS Outcome #2 will be assessed and measured by communication with the instructor and fellow class members, and post-testing.
    • SCCC/ATS Outcome #3 will be assessed and measured by communication with the instructor and fellow class members, and post-testing.
    • SCCC/ATS Outcome #4 will be assessed and measured by demonstrating the skill learned, post-testing, and critical evaluation of work performed.
    • SCCC/ATS Outcome #5 will be assessed and measured by demonstrating proficiency in solving assigned drawing problems, and post-testing of abilities.
    • SCCC/ATS Outcome #6 will be assessed and measured by applying basic concepts to computer applications and demonstrating proficiency in the skill.
