For courses in AutoCAD. Based on the belief that computer-aided design, like many other skills, cannot be learned by merely reading about it, this text engages students in hands-on activity from the very beginning and integrates explanatory material, techniques, tips, and shortcuts with practical exercises. Each chapter is organized in a consistent format around a series of tasks to be done at a CAD workstation. This text further features an abundance of substantive working drawings (complete with dimensions) for use as problems. Activity based and task oriented - Tasks are identified clearly at the beginning of each chapter and carefully sequenced so that students progress logically through the AutoCAD command set.

Highlighted instructions -All instructions are clearly marked with an arrow and set in a different typeface to distinguish them from discussion statements.

Review questions and drawing problems - Before the working drawings in each chapter. Students test their understanding and retention of material presented in the chapter before proceeding to the drawings which apply new knowledge. Substantive drawings -In each chapter. The drawings are clearly dimensioned and related through drawing suggestions to techniques introduced in the chapter.
