Great app AutoCAD WS.
In the past the students have learnt AutoCAD and as part of the summative assessment they print off their work onto paper. I then used to mark this and hand it back to them with a mark attached... then what was the drawing to be used for? The old way... OK so what's the new look like then... the students draw on AutoCAD an object they need to manufacture... ensuring the necessary info is attached.... this drawing is then uploaded into the cloud and onto AutoCAD WS... shared with me and others, thats up to the student who the others are... I can then read this and make comments, if necessary, buts what's more important is that the students are using this technique in real time now to construct the actual article. I've noticed that if they need more infor from the drawing then they have now the ability to source this... No need to carry around the paper war any more... So this is making me think about the bigger question stuff... like why do we draw in CAD in the first place? What are we to do with the drawings once they have been done?
