Course Philosophy: The course philosophy of the grade 9 CAD program at McCann Technical School is to
develop the student’s technical skills with a systematic study of basic drafting/design for
industry. The course philosophy is consistent with the schools educational philosophy to
create a learning organization of school and community leaders, teachers, parents, and
students that sustains a culture of continuous improvement through the use of student
assessment and program evaluation. The goals to be achieved by the course are to create
a safe learning environment that motivates and actively engages all students. The
program creates an environment conducive to learning that makes students accountable
for their performance in shop. The program introduces technical education that is aligned
to state and national standards and relevant to local business and industry. It also exposes
young people to the ever changing field of CAD with unlimited opportunities to expand
their knowledge through industry work or further education and training.
Course Description:
Grade 9 students develop technical skills with a systematic study of basic drafting for
industry. Whether their goal is to develop an understanding of drafting in a technical
world, or to enter one of the career fields related to drafting, students will find the
curriculum to be an interesting and challenging area of fundamental study. Students will
develop computer skills, utilize sophisticated software training, and also develop drafting
techniques known as ANSI (American National Standards Institute) and practices.
Throughout the year students will gain experience and allow students to experience real-
life problem solving situations. Students continue to focus on three main objectives:
1.) Computer hardware
2.) Sophisticated software training
3.) Basic drafting/design techniques
Computer Hardware:
Grade 9 students develop technical skills when operating a computer in a safe and
efficient manner. Their knowledge of computers, which includes a central processing
unit, monitor, keyboard, mouse, and a printer, is applied in various technical applications.
Also students further their knowledge of technical terminology utilizing hardware and
software.
Sophisticated software training:
Grade 9 CAD students advance their technical training utilizing AutoCAD, sophisticated
computer-aided drafting software. Students will produce fundamental technical drawings
and continue to gain knowledge of AutoCAD terminology.
Fundamental drafting techniques:
Students continue to advance the universal language of drafting techniques used by
engineering design teams all over the world. To further develop an understanding of
these techniques students must be familiar with advance terms used to describe tasks and
concepts associated with it. These advanced drafting techniques are known as ANSI
(American National Standards Institute) and practices. Students will apply this
knowledge towards fundamental mechanical drawings.

Course Assessment Plan:
The Computer Assisted Drafting (CAD) grade 9 program at McCann Technical School
has the following assessment plan in place online utilizing the schools X2 assessment
software. Report cards and Progress reports are issued quarterly and serve as a guideline
for students and their parents to measure achievement. Parents are encouraged to contact
teachers and counselors to ensure a continuing participation in student progress. Students
are graded in the following four categories by assigning a number in each category. For
clarification, the grading system categories are defined below:
90-100 Advanced
80-89 Proficient
70-79 Satisfactory
65-69 Passing
0-64 Failing
I Incomplete (make-up required)
Course Grading Policy:
“Student assessment and grade reporting is considered a positive tool to measure growth,
progress, and the development of the student. Report cards are issued four times each
year. In addition, progress reports are issued at the mid-point of each quarter.” (Charles
H. McCann Technical School Student/Parent Handbook 2010-2011)

Instructional Activities:
Instructional activities for the grade 9 CAD students provide an opportunity to develop
career awareness in depth and fundamental drafting/design techniques that reflect a real
working environment. Students continually learn how to operate computers in a safe and
efficient manner. A combination of lecture, discussion and demonstration teaching
methods followed by applied skills activities, is utilized in the grade 9 course of study.
Students may be asked to prepare for lecture/discussion by reading, viewing appropriate
material, or conducting research into the topic in question. The instructor then presents
lecture covering all theories, principals and concepts relating to the topic in question.
This is follows by demonstrations of the various skills that will be developed. Students
are then given practical application activities with hands-on exercises. Students must
achieve proficiency in each task before the instructor will complete the competency on
their individual competency profile. The students participate in individual projects that
correlate with the theory class units of instruction. The course instructional activities are
based on the individual student needs and learning styles which are always of the utmost
importance and are considered when achieving the programs required goals
competencies. Alternative instructional methods and assessments which are based on the
student needs are always available. Most of the students are able to achieve the program
goals and competencies. The SkillsUSA professional development program is another
vehicle in which curricula integration are implemented.

Instructional Activities: Instructional activities for the grade 10 CAD students provide an opportunity to develop
career awareness in depth and intermediate drafting/design techniques that reflect a real
working environment. Students continually learn how to operate computers in a safe and
efficient manner. A combination of lecture, discussion and demonstration teaching
methods followed by applied skills activities, is utilized in the grade 10 course of study.
Students may be asked to prepare for lecture/discussion by reading, viewing appropriate
material, or conducting research into the topic in question. The instructor then presents
lecture covering all theories, principals and concepts relating to the topic in question.
This is follows by demonstrations of the various skills that will be developed. Students
are then given practical application activities with hands-on exercises. Students must
achieve proficiency in each task before the instructor will complete the competency on
their individual competency profile. The students participate in individual projects that
correlate with the theory class units of instruction. The course instructional activities are
based on the individual student needs and learning styles which are always of the utmost
importance and are considered when achieving the programs required goals
competencies. Alternative instructional methods and assessments which are based on the
student needs are always available. Most of the students are able to achieve the program
goals and competencies. The SkillsUSA professional development program is another
vehicle in which curricula integration are implemented.

COURSE PHILOSOPHY:
The course philosophy of the grade 11 CAD program at McCann Technical School is to
further develop the student’s technical skills with a systematic study of advanced
drafting/design for industry. The course philosophy is consistent with the schools
educational philosophy to create a learning organization of school and community
leaders, teachers, parents, and students that sustains a culture of continuous improvement
through the use of student assessment and program evaluation. The goals to be achieved
by the course are to create a safe learning environment that motivates and actively
engages all students. The program creates an environment conducive to learning that
makes students accountable for their performance during their exploration of the shop.
The program also introduces technical education that is aligned to state and national
standards and relevant to local business and industry. It also exposes young people to the
ever changing field of CAD with unlimited opportunities to expand their knowledge
through industry work or further education and training.
COURSE DESCRIPTION:
The grade 11 students enrolled in the Computer Assisted Drafting (CAD) program will
primarily focus on six objectives:
1.) Solid Modeling
2.) Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing in accordance with ANSI/ASME
Y14.5M-1994
3.) Mechanical Design-Shop Applications
4.) Integrated Plastic Technology
5.) Automated Manufacturing Technology
6.) Junior Project
Solid Modeling: The students will begin to learn a new concept of solid modeling. They will each progress
individually to understand the process involved. They will begin with the basic model
progressing to complex models, assemblies and detail documentation.
Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing:
The majority of theory time presented to the students will be dedicated to interpreting and
applying Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing in accordance with ANSI/ASME
Y14.5M-1994. This is a national standard, a language of symbols, that the students will
adhere to not only in theory but apply to their shop related projects.
Mechanical Design-Shop Applications:
The students will apply both of their solid modeling and Geometric Dimensioning and
Tolerancing skills to complete six major design projects (S040, S041, S042, S043, S044
and S045). They will produce solid models, assemblies, and detail documentation to
produce a complete set of working drawings.
Integrated Plastic Technology
The students will be integrating with Machine Technology. These students will
collaborate in groups beginning with conceptual designs progressing to the final design.
They will produce the same documentation package as included in the shop applications.
They ultimately will manufacture a cavity and core and produce a plastic product
utilizing the plastic injection mold machine in Machine Technology.
Automated Manufacturing Technology The students will be integrating with Machine Technology. Students working in teams
will utilize computer aided drafting and design techniques and geometric construction
tools used to create two and three dimensional drawings. Students develop a solid
model(s) from engineering sketches and produce orthographic and three dimensional
drawings in accordance with ANSI/ASME Y14.5M. The model(s) will be exported from
SolidWorks and imported to produce a rapid prototype part using a 3D Printer for
concept modeling. Once the design has been finalized they then will assist in the
manufacturing of the finished product in the Machine Technology environment.
Junior Project All students will finish their junior year by completing a junior project. They will
accurately measure multiple components from an existing assembly. They will generate
sketches, produce solid models and assemblies based on their measurements and
sketches. This project consists of the same documentation package as included in shop
applications as well as 3D printed parts, a four page written technical paper and a ten
minute oral presentation.
COURSE SYLLABUS:
Grade 11 students primarily focus on six main objectives during their Junior year. These
main objectives are Solid Modeling, Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing in
accordance with ANSI/ASME Y14.5M-1994, Mechanical Design-Shop Applications,
Plastic Technology, Automated Manufacturing Technology and The Junior Project. As
students learn these technical concepts it will provide them with essential drafting skills
to obtain an entry level position or continuing education. Throughout the year students
will gain real work experience and allow students to experience real life problem solving
situations.
COURSE ASSESSMENT PLAN
The Computer Assisted Drafting (CAD) grade 11 program at McCann Technical School
has the following assessment plan in place online utilizing the schools X2 assessment
software. Report cards and Progress reports are issued quarterly and serve as a guideline
for students and their parents to measure achievement. Parents are encouraged to contact
teachers and counselors to ensure a continuing participation in student progress. Students
are graded in the following four categories by assigning a number in each category. For
clarification, the grading system categories are defined below:
90-100 Advanced
80-89 Proficient
70-79 Satisfactory
65-69 Passing
0-64 Failing
I Incomplete (make-up required)
Grading System:
“Student assessment and grade reporting is considered a positive tool to measure growth,
progress, and the development of the student. Report cards are issued four times each
year. In addition, progress reports are issued at the mid-point of each quarter.” (Charles
H. McCann Technical School Student/Parent Handbook)

INSTRUCTIONAL ACTIVITIES:
The grade 11 students enrolled in CAD are provided an opportunity to utilize their
developed skills on numerous projects. The project based curriculum provides the student
an opportunity to experience both individual and a teaming approach to complete the
assignments. They utilize various tools of the trade to complete the required assignments.
The skills and techniques mirror that of a real world working environment.
Identify Components (function and relationship)
Students will identify the components of the assembled project. They will recognize the
overall size, material specifications and quantity of each part. The students will then
determine the function and relationship of each component within the assembly. They
will need to understand what the part does (function) as it works in the assembly as well
as how it assembled to mating parts (relationship).
Design Intent in Solid Modeling
The students will determine the optimum method to solid model the parts. Solid modeling
consists of creating constraints to the geometry to incorporate intelligence into the design.
This intelligence is understanding the design intent. The students will model the parts
with the understanding the final product may change. If and when the change occurs the
solid model needs to behave in a manner to accept the change with minimum feature
failure and maintain the parametric relationship within the assembly.
Detail/Assembly Drawings
After completing the models of the project the students will generated an assembly model
and detail drawings. All of the drawings will be in accordance with
ASME/ANSIY14.5M-1994. This process will emphasize the importance of recognizing
the function and relationship of the components within the assembly.
3D Printing-Prototype
The students will have the opportunity to process their solid model to a .stl
(stereolithography) file. They then will print a prototype part utilizing the 3D printer.
This process allows the student to go from the solid model to producing the part
(printing) so they may actually hold it in their hand in a very short period of time.
This procedure often initiates the need to change the model, assembly and drawings
which is the nature of the real world workforce.

COURSE PHILOSOPHY: The course philosophy of the grade 12 CAD program at McCann Technical School is to
further develop the student’s technical skills with a systematic study of advanced
drafting/design for industry. The course philosophy is consistent with the schools
educational philosophy to create a learning organization of school and community
leaders, teachers, parents, and students that sustains a culture of continuous improvement
through the use of student assessment and program evaluation. The goals to be achieved
by the course are to create a safe learning environment that motivates and actively
engages all students. The program creates an environment conducive to learning that
makes students accountable for their performance during their exploration of the shop.
The program also introduces technical education that is aligned to state and national
standards and relevant to local business and industry. It also exposes young people to the
ever changing field of CAD with unlimited opportunities to expand their knowledge
through industry work or further education and training
COURSE DESCRIPTION:
The majority of the grade 12 students enrolled in the Computer Assisted Drafting (CAD)
program will primarily focus on three objectives:
1.) Architectural Design Software
2.) Architecture-Residential Drawing and Design
3.) Residential Design-Shop Applications
The remainder of the students have an option to continue their senior year with advanced
mechanical design. They will be challenged with new solid modeling software and will
apply similar objectives as stated in the grade 11, course #743 description.
Architectural Design Software: The students will begin to learn a new concept of software. They will each progress
individually to understand the process involved. They will begin with the basic floor plan
progressing to one and one-half and two story designs. They will produce floor plans,
foundation plans, elevations, plot plans, and the required sections to generate a complete
set of construction drawings.
Architecture-Residential Drawing and Design:
The majority of theory time presented to the students will be dedicated to interpreting the
drawings required for a complete set of construction drawings. We will utilize this time
discussing The Massachusetts Building Code, regulations of The Federal Housing
Administration (FHA) and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
Residential Design-Shop Applications: The students will apply both of their design software and related theory knowledge to
complete three major projects (S016, S017, and S018). They will produce floor plans,
foundation plans, elevations, plot plans, and the required sections to generate a complete
set of construction drawings. All students will finish their senior year by completing a
senior project (S019). This project consists of the same documentation package as well as
a scaled built model, an eight page written technical paper and a fifteen to twenty minute
oral presentation.
COURSE SYLLABUS:
Grade 12 students primarily focus on three main objectives during their Senior year.
These main objectives are learning the Architectural Software, Residential Drawing and
Design and Residential Design-Shop Applications. As students learn these technical
concepts it will provide them with essential drafting skills. Throughout the year students
will gain experience and allow students to experience real life problem solving situations.
COURSE ASSESSMENT PLAN
The Computer Assisted Drafting (CAD) grade 12 program at McCann Technical School
has the following assessment plan in place online utilizing the schools X2 assessment
software. Report cards and Progress reports are issued quarterly and serve as a guideline
for students and their parents to measure achievement. Parents are encouraged to contact
teachers and counselors to ensure a continuing participation in student progress. Students
are graded in the following four categories by assigning a number in each category. For
clarification, the grading system categories are defined below:
90-100 Advanced
80-89 Proficient
70-79 Satisfactory
65-69 Passing
0-64 Failing
I Incomplete (make-up required)
Grading System: “Student assessment and grade reporting is considered a positive tool to measure growth,
progress, and the development of the student. Report cards are issued four times each
year. In addition, progress reports are issued at the mid-point of each quarter.” (Charles
H. McCann Technical School Student/Parent Handbook)

INSTRUCTIONAL ACTIVITIES:
The grade 12 students enrolled in CAD are provided an opportunity to utilize their
developed skills on numerous projects. They have a choice to study Architecture
Residential Drawing and Design or continue with advanced mechanical design. The
mechanical design students will be challenged with activities similar as described in
course #743 The architectural program is project based curriculum that provides the
student an opportunity to experience both individual and a teaming approach to complete
the assignments. They utilize various tools of the trade to complete the required
assignments. The skills and techniques mirror that of a real world working environment.
Basic House Design
Students will recognize the four basic house designs consisting of the one-story ranch,
one-and-one half story, two story, and split level. They will sketch floor plans of each
design and map traffic circulation for maximum efficiency. Students will then generate a
CAD drawing based on their sketches of each floor plan for future reference.
Room Planning and Room Sizes
The students incorporate into all projects efficient room planning. The planning consists
of proper room sizes and the layout of the living, sleeping and service areas. They will
begin this process with conceptual sketches and then the generation of CAD drawings.
Complete Plans-Construction Drawings
All of the projects that are completed require a complete set of construction drawings.
The students will develop sketches of floor plans and elevations for their initial designs.
Once they have been finalized they will create floor plans, foundation plans, elevations,
plot plans, and required sections to generate a complete set of working drawings.
The Senior Project
The students will conclude their senior year with the senior project. This project
demonstrates the knowledge that they have acquired over their past years within the
department. It consists of a product, a paper, and a presentation. This project is integrated
with academics as well as other technical areas in some cases. It truly prepares the
student for their transition either to college or directly to an entry level position in their
technical area.
