Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of problems designed to introduce students to the fundamental principles of mechanical drawing. The problems are arranged to cover two years of school work and are grouped into first semester, second semester, and third and fourth semester work. The author believes this will allow the student who leaves school during the first two years to have received the proportional amount of mechanical drawing that will serve his needs best in the practical walks of life. Each problem is given in the form of a specification sheet and a layout sheet from which the student is to make the completed drawing. The specification sheet gives a statement of the problem, is frequently supplemented with text matter that emphasizes the thing to be taught in the problem, or gives some relative information. The layout sheet suggests the method of procedure and also furnishes an object lesson in the form of carefully executed work that is always before the pupil. The author believes class instruction is thus reduced to a minimum, giving the teacher more time for individual instruction, and allowing the pupil the opportunity of working things out by himself. He also feels the proper use of the specification, layout, and reference sheets will do much towards creating self-reliance and personal effort and exertion on the part of the student. The required problems are fully supplemented, making the course flexible, and suitable for many needs.
