《机械制图》是机械设计制造及自动化专业一门理论与实践紧密结合的重要专业基础课。主要培养学生绘制和识读机械图样的能力,这种能力的提高离不开空间想象力的培养。所以,在教学过程中,我们要通过直观教学、记图训练及读图训练等形式培养学生的空间想象力,以大幅度提高教学效果。 “Mechanical Drawing” is an important professional basic course that combines the theory and practice of mechanical design, manufacture and automation major. Mainly develop students ability to draw and read mechanical drawings, this ability can not be separated from the cultivation of space imagination.
