	Students will explore the 3D digital workspace through the investigation and representation of several Case Study Houses. Working individually, students will complete weekly exercises that will incorporate digital and hand drawn methods to produce produce a rigorous set of drawings and renderings.
Assessment objectives	Assessment objectives include: Ability to draw orthographically and clearly represent graphic information through line weight and line type using 3D tools. Ability to use 3D modeling tools to create an accurate an accurate 3D model from 2D drawings. Ability to work across digital programs in post-processing to produce final presentation documents.
Exercise Type	Project
Evaluation Criteria	High Pass Clear and precise drawings using linetype and lineweight correctly to clearly express graphic information. Drawings are dimensioned and scaled correctly. A tight 3D model with a high level of craft and attention to detail. Renderings contain a high attention to detail with accurately rendered textures, shadows, linework, and post processing. Presentation boards are composed well, emphasizing each drawings relationship to the others, creating a cohesive project narrative. Pass Drawings are graphically clear and contain a variety of lineweights and linetypes. 3D model shows good level of craft and detail. Renderings use hand drawn materials, shadow, linework, and post processing. Drawings are composed well for final presentation, although drawings, Renderings, or both contain some issues. Low Pass Drawings lack diversity of lineweight and linetype and are difficult to read. Drawings are scaled and/or dimension incorrectly. 3D model lacks attention to detail and organization with low levels of craft. Renderings are basic, showing little evidence of texture, shadow, linework, and post post-processing. Final presentation is unorganized and unclear. Several issues are found in both 2D and 3D representation. Fail Drawings are graphically illegible and/or incomplete, with no lineweights or linetypes. Drawings are scaled incorrectly with insufficient information. 3D model has no detail and no organizational hierarchy. Renderings are incomplete and have no texture, shadow, linework, or post processing work. Presentation is unorganized, or student does not pin-up for final review.
