CATALOG COURSE DESCRIPTION:

COURSE FOCUS:

This course is a continuation of Drafting ID112 Emphasis will be placed on plans, sections, elevations and drawing as a way of spatial understanding and communication including constructed 3 dimensional drawing systems. *Prerequisite: ID112

In a very real way this course is about the most fundamental aspect of spatial design. It is about the communication and expression of ideas through drawing. The course is designed to deepen the students ability to express accurately their spatial and material ideas. All drawing is a representation of ideas and thinking. The intention of this course is to develop the ability to draw architecturally, with consideration, understanding, intelligence, creativity and sympathy. This intention will be pursued throughout the semester with weekly drawing exercises, projects, tests, demonstrations, readings, and lectures.

PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES:

Upon completion of this course, the student should be able to do the following:

✓ The development of the ability to utilize the single view drawing systems

as a means for the representation of spatial and material ideas. ✓ The development of the ability to see and communicate ideas through

drawing. ✓ The development of the ability to create Multi-view drawings

INSTRUCTIONAL METHODS:

• Lectures

• Presentation of examples describing successful drawing techniques

• Hands-on drawing assistance and demonstration

• Weekly pin-ups and critiques of assignments for peer review

LIBRARY ASSIGNMENTS:

Outside research is required to complete the library research project. This information may be found by utilizing the resources in the school library or other library research resources located in the City. In addition, various publications, journals, and periodicals can supplement all of the material presented in class.

GRADING:

Student performance will be evaluated based upon the following criteria:

Class work and homework (Completed and on time.): 15% Tests and/or demonstration of meeting deadline, comprehension and accuracy on all work: 15% Projects 1,2 and 3 (Completed and on time.): 60% Professionalism, Attitude, Attendance, Punctuality, Ability to work independently: 10%

Requirements for Successful Course Completion:

• Completion and competence of all assignments

• Attendance as per school policy

• Active participation

Please note that handing in all your work and attending all your classes does not guarantee a passing grade. Architectural Drawing 2: Advanced Drafting and 3D Drawing - Grading Friday, July 8th 2011

Please take into consideration the following conditions when determining how you approach this course.

Handing in all your work and attending all your classes does not guarantee a passing grade.

My grading policy for advanced drafting is based on the course structure. In advanced drafting there are 4 main elements and several minor elements that determine a students grade. The 4 main elements are the Mid-term exam grade and drafting projects 1,2 and 3 which are based on the 3 types of architectural drawing: Project 1 - idea generation, Project 2 - construction documents and Project 3 - Presentation drawings. Each of these main elements is weighted according to the amount of time given to complete the project. The minor grading elements are attendance, lateness, class participation, homework, quizzes and class work. I also explain what is required for each individual project at the time it is assigned and review it weekly. I also make copies of successful student work and unsuccessful student work that I show as examples to follow and to learn from.

COURSE POLICIES:

1. The instructor will schedule appropriate breaks during the class. 2. Students here at The Art Institute of New York City are preparing for a career in an industry with specific expectations around promptness, attendance, and sensitivity to deadlines. Your educational experience should also reflect the importance of these values. Attendance of all class sessions is expected and required for satisfactory completion of courses at The Art Institute of New York City. Hence, absences will be reflected in student’s graded performance:

a. In an emergency, you are allowed one full absence per quarter.

However, you are completely responsible for all missed class work and homework. b. At the second full absence, your grade will be dropped by one

letter grade. c. Upon the third full absence, you will fail the class. d. Late arrivals/ early departures will accumulate to make full

absences.

3. Assignment Note: All assignments and projects must be handed in on time. LATE WORK WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED AND WILL RESULT IN A FAILING GRADE. 4. Syllabi Note: This syllabus is subject to change at any time.

5. There will be NO extensions granted on any work, unless permission is granted through the Department Chair.

ATTENDANCE:

AINYC Attendance Policy, Effective January 1, 2011 Due to the intensive nature of the 11 week quarter system at The Art Institute of New York City, absences jeopardize participation and a student’s ability to successfully complete his or her studies. A student’s academic performance is in pursuit of preparation for a professional environment in which there is typically zero or little tolerance for absenteeism. If, for some critical reason, a student finds it necessary to be absent, late, or leave early it is the student’s responsibility to: *Notify the instructor, and make up all missed work. *Note that accumulated tardiness, leaving class before it is dismissed, or absenteeism will affect performance and the participation grade. *Understand that excessive absenteeism may result in failure of the class. *Look for the specific participation requirements for individual courses, by referring to the course grading rubric within the syllabus provided by the instructor. Attendance is taken every class meeting. There are no excused absences, and the only consideration to be granted must be presented by the instructor to the department chair and the Dean of Academic Affairs.

A student who misses twelve (12) hours in a course will receive a Withdrawal grade (W) for weeks 1 through 9 and a W/F grade after week 9 for that course. Tardiness and absenteeism will be recorded in 15 minute increments.

A student who knows that he/she will be late/absent must contact the instructor via voicemail, e-mail, or administrative note. When absent, a student is responsible for obtaining the lecture notes and homework assignments from other members of the class or the syllabus.

Students will be asked to leave class if they are unprepared, disengaged, sleeping, disruptive, or otherwise compromising the educational experience of students who are motivated and trying to work.

Students who do not attend classes for 14 consecutive days will be dropped from school from the last date they attended school; exceptions will be made only on the basis of appropriate documentation presented to the Dean of Academic Affairs.

Students taking minimally twelve credits, who have perfect attendance for all courses registered in a particular quarter will receive a $100 tuition credit for the subsequent quarter of enrollment in the school. Details regarding this tuition credit may be found in The Art Institute of New York City catalog.
