Overview of Assessment
Various written assignments/tests and practical exercises/projects
Assessment Tasks
This is a competency based subject. In class progressive exercises, Compentency tests 1&2, you will be assessed on the skills you developed througout the course, in particular your ability to understand computer aided drawing systems for the purpose of drawing in 2D and 3D to represent engineering applications.
Competency test will be conducted in the Lab under supervision.
Assessment Matrix
1. Class exercise -20% Covering 1-14 of underpinning skills and knowledges.
2. Competency Test -1 -30%- Using AUTOCAD software- covering 1 to 10 of Underpinning skills and knowledge.
3. Competency Test -1 -50%- Using Solid Works software- covering 1 to 13 of Underpinning skills and knowledge
Other Information
Tests are conducted under closed book conditions. In order to pass this competency the learner must obtain a 50% of marks in combination of Competency Test 1 &2.
