Abstract

Computer technologies of graphic education of students studying programming and information technologies are considered. Particular attention is paid to the joint use of descriptive geometry methods and three-dimensional geometric modeling tools in the creation and study of models of geometric shapes. A basic set of competencies has been identified, allowing to solve the main types of computer graphics tasks, methods for achieving these competencies are considered.

Highlights

  • Graphic preparation was carried out and is being carried out for students of construction, engineering and other engineering specialties

  • In the 70s of the last century in a university that was known in the USSR under the name “Donetsk Polytechnic Institute” (DPI), descriptive geometry and engineering graphics were read even for the specialty “Applied Mathematics”

  • This method is more visual than the reduction of one of the straight lines to the projection position, which is traditionally used in descriptive geometry, for which, in the general case, two plane changes are needed

Summary

Introduction

Graphic preparation was carried out and is being carried out for students of construction, engineering and other engineering specialties. Having lowered the perpendicular from an arbitrary point of another straight line to the plane defined by the intersecting straight lines and finding the point of intersection of the perpendicular with the plane, we obtain a segment whose length is the desired distance (Fig. 5) This method is more visual than the reduction of one of the straight lines to the projection position, which is traditionally used in descriptive geometry, for which, in the general case, two plane changes are needed. The mentioned methods and tools are applied in the course, which is called "Computer Graphics" and is read by the author for some areas of the enlarged groups 09.00.00 and 02.00.00 (already new standards). For those who are used to the terminology that is traditional for computer science, the name of the course is discordant with its content, and the author would prefer the name "Computer Geometry Tools", but some features of the curriculum still do not allow renaming the subject
