    Moodle is an open-source Learning Management System (LMS) that provides educators with the tools and features to create and manage online courses. It allows educators to organize course materials, create quizzes and assignments, host discussion forums, and track student progress. Moodle is highly flexible and can be customized to meet the specific needs of different institutions and learning environments.

    Moodle supports both synchronous and asynchronous learning environments, enabling educators to host live webinars, video conferences, and chat sessions, as well as providing a variety of tools that support self-paced learning, including videos, interactive quizzes, and discussion forums. The platform also integrates with other tools and systems, such as Google Apps and plagiarism detection software, to provide a seamless learning experience.

    Moodle is widely used in educational institutions, including universities, K-12 schools, and corporate training programs. It is well-suited to online and blended learning environments and distance education programs. Additionally, Moodle's accessibility features make it a popular choice for learners with disabilities, ensuring that courses are inclusive and accessible to all learners.

    The Moodle community is an active group of users, developers, and educators who contribute to the platform's development and improvement. The community provides support, resources, and documentation for users, as well as a forum for sharing ideas and best practices. Moodle releases regular updates and improvements, ensuring that the platform remains up-to-date with the latest technologies and best practices.

A building drawing is a detailed graphical representation of a construction project that communicates the design, dimensions, materials, and systems involved in creating a structure. It serves as a universal language between architects, engineers, contractors, and clients, ensuring that everyone involved in the project understands how the building should be constructed.

What Building Drawings Include
Building drawings typically consist of several types, each serving a specific purpose:

Architectural Drawings: Show the layout, design, and aesthetics of the building. Includes floor plans, elevations, sections, and detailed views.

Structural Drawings: Illustrate the framework of the building—beams, columns, foundations—ensuring stability and strength.

Electrical Drawings: Map out wiring, circuits, lighting, and power systems in accordance with safety codes.

Plumbing Drawings: Detail the water supply, drainage systems, pipe sizes, and fittings.

Mechanical Drawings: Cover HVAC systems, elevators, and other mechanical components.

Purpose and Importance
Communication Tool: Ensures all stakeholders are aligned on the design and execution.

Legal and Regulatory Compliance: Helps meet building codes and obtain permits.

Construction Guidance: Acts as a blueprint for builders and contractors.

Error Reduction: Minimizes misunderstandings and costly mistakes during construction.

 Fact
The floor plan is often considered the heart of building drawings—it’s a bird’s-eye view that shows how spaces are arranged and connected, making it essential for visualizing flow and functionality

Students will learn how to accurately represent objects, structures, and systems through standardized drawing techniques and conventions. The course emphasizes precision, clarity, and visual communication, covering both manual drafting skills and computer-aided drafting (CAD) concepts.

Topics Covered:

  • Introduction to drawing instruments, tools, and standards

  • Orthographic projection and multiview drawings

  • Isometric and axonometric projections

  • Dimensioning and tolerancing

  • Sectional views and auxiliary views

  • Geometric construction and descriptive geometry

  • Assembly and exploded views

  • Introduction to CAD software for technical drawing

Learning Outcomes:
By the end of this course, students will be able to:

  • Apply industry standards and conventions in technical drawings.

  • Create accurate 2D and 3D representations of objects.

  • Use orthographic, isometric, and sectional views to communicate design intent.

  • Interpret and produce working drawings for manufacturing and construction.

  • Demonstrate proficiency in both manual drafting techniques and introductory CAD tools.

Target Audience:
Engineering, architecture, and design students; vocational and technical trainees; or professionals seeking foundational drafting skills.

Format:
Lectures, hands-on studio work, and CAD lab practice with project-based assignments.
