#ACAD for Kids
3 messages in this thread
Wayne, I donot have much more information about the program, other than it is
"an exploratory program in my vocational area – CAD."
The sponsor is PIC – the Private Industry Council.
I have been told the I could bring in speakers, use videos, take field trips,
explore CAM – computer aided manufacturing, etc., etc.
To me this program is not meant to train or teach CAD/CAM, but to expose the
kids to the opportunities available. If they learned some AutoCAD it would be a
plus.
I have ten (10) workstations available; 286 vintage, with AutoCAD R10, a
Calcomp 1043, 8 pen plotter, and an Epson LQ printer.
I have access to several copies of Terry Wolhers' Applying AutoCAD.
I think some funding is available to acquire other resources.
I would appreciate any additional information and materials you could provide.
Thanks,
Bob.
Bob – I talked to the Educational Group on Friday, and an Autodesk Program
Specialist named Barbara Bowen should be calling you to help you with some
ideas. Good luck, and let us know how it goes.

Robert,
Give Mike Kopf at Goodheart-Willcox a call (800-323-0440) and ask for an
examination copy of "AutoCAD Essentials." It is designed as an introductory
text for AutoCAD beginners. It might supplement your existing materials.
