Course detail

Geometric Objects Drawing

FSI-YKGAcad. year: 2016/2017

This course is concerned with drawing the still-life composed of basic geometrical objects with a uniform surface in a perspective view. It follows up on fundamentals of drawing. The course is a preparation for industrial design workshops.

Learning outcomes of the course unit

Improving technique of drawing by practising drawing of objects with shapes similar to basic geometric bodies.

Prerequisites

Elementary knowledge of the perspective drawing / frontal and corner perspective, bird’s eye view, bottom view/ is assumed as well as the experience with the drawing of basic geometry elements and perspective view using a model.

Co-requisites

Not applicable.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Creative work in ateliers.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

Graded course-unit credit requirements: Attendance at exercises, meeting assigned projects deadlines.
Resulting evaluation consists of evaluations on tasks (drawings). In total it will be possible to aquire 100 points. Resulting classification will be defined by the ECTS scale.
If some of the projects are awarded less than half of the maximum pts., final evaluation of the course is F "failed".
According to the article No. 13 of Study and Examination Rules of Brno University of Technology ECTS evaluation degree scale is used. . If some of the projects are awarded less than 50 pts., final evaluation of the course is "failed". The course is evaluated with the following grades: ECTS EVALUATION DEGREES / PTS. RATING / NUMERIC RATING: A / 100 - 90 / 1 / Excellent; B /89 - 80 / 1,5 / Very good; C / 79 - 70 / 2 / Good; D / 69 - 60 / Satisfactory; E / 59 - 50 / Sufficient; F / 49 - 0 / 4 / Failed.

Aims

The aim is to enhance students’ knowledge of drawing. Practical exercises emphasize building-up the mass in the surface and proportion of objects.

Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences

The attendance in education is controlled. Missed lessons are compensated according to the agreement with a lecturer (e.g. a compensatory project is assigned). The excuse of absence is possible only due serious reasons such as illness. Unexcused absence and absence greater than 50% /including excused lessons / may jeopardise awarding the graded course-unit credit.
