Learning outcomes of the course unit

Students should be able to construct conics from the properties of their foci, perspective colineation, perspective affinity. Understand the basics of projections: Monge`s, orthogonal axonometry, central projection and perspective projection. Display the basic geometric bodies in each projection. Construct sections of bodies. Project a building using a perspective projection. Vertical picture, reconstruction of the elements of internal orientation. Stereography projection.

Prerequisites

Basic knowledge of planar and 3D geometry as taught at secondary schools.

Co-requisites

Not applicable.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

The course is taught through lectures, practical classes and self-study assignments. Attendance at lectures is optional, but attendance at classes is compulsory.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

Full-time study programme: Students have to pass two credit tests, submit two drawings and other homework, followed by an exam with a pass rate of at least 50%.
Combined study programme: Students will do 5 texts during the semester and send them to the lecturer. Their successful completion is a condition for getting the credit. An exam with a pass rate of at least 50% will follow.
