                  ONLINE CLASSROOMS

                  learn and affords them greater flexibility and convenience about when
                  they want to learn and how they learn it. By developing learning
                  strategies that incorporate a wide variety of learning activities, we can
                  more efficiently utilize learning resources and increase learning
                  absorption.

                of architects into a set of technical drawings. Drafters operate as the supporting
                developers and sketch architectural designs and drawings from preliminary design
                concepts.

                Architectural Draughtsman’s drawings provide visual guidelines and show how to
                construct a structure. Drawings include technical details and specify dimensions,
ARCHITECTURAL   materials, and procedures. Drafters fill in technical details using drawings, rough
                sketches, specifications, and calculations made by architects. Drafters use technical
 DRAUGHTING     handbooks, tables, calculators, and computers to complete their work.
