DEVELOPMENT OF GRAPHICS LITERACY CURRICULUM

近年来，在工程设计和绘图领域中，3D-CAD的使用持续快速普及，并且在许多领域中，例如在科学中用于计算机模拟结果的可视化，以及在电影和游戏娱乐领域中用于图像显示，也越来越多地使用CG。随着3D-CAD/CG的普及，过去在工程设计师等专业中使用的图形表示现在被各种领域和各种人使用，因此需要对广泛的学生进行包括使用3D-CAD/CG的能力的图形表示教育，或“图形素养（或视觉素养）教育”。本研究项目的目的是通过东京大学文理学院开设的图形科学课程开发“图形素养课程”。图形学课程的主体部分包括图形学I和图形学II，其中图形学I， ...更多信息 此外，画法几何的教学将以手绘为基础。使用Graphic Science H，可以体验商业图形处理软件。在东京大学，图形科学作为文科科目教授，但它也被作为工程设计和绘图的基础科目。因此，3D-CAD是引入的主要图形处理软件。然而，3D-CAD已经被开发用于几何建模和用于将建模数据应用于设计分析，并且对于诸如生成透视图、渲染或动画显示的呈现功能并不完全令人满意。因此，为了补充这些功能的研究，CG软件也被引入。在本课程中，3D-CAD/CG的经验是主要的教育目标，但通过引入几何问题作为示例和作业，它旨在与画法几何教育（图形科学I）相互补充。通过对2005、2006、2007年三个班级的详细分析，包括对学生作业报告、作业完成时间、期末考试、学生空间能力提升评价、学生听课评价等方面的分析，结果表明课程设计是合理的。少

In recent years, there continues to be a rapid spread in the use of 3D-CAD in the field of engineering design and drawing, and there is also increasing use of CG in many fields such as for visualization of computer simulation results in science, and for image display in the movie and game entertainment fields. With the spread of 3D-CAD/CG, graphic presentation that was used in some specialist such as engineering designers in the past, is now being used in various fields and by various people, so there is a need for graphic presentation education including the competence in the use of 3D-CAD/CG, or "graphics literacy (or visual literacy) education" for a wide range of students. The aim of this research project is to develop "graphics literacy curriculum" through the Graphic Science Courses offered at the College of Arts and Sciences of The University of Tokyo. The main part of the Graphic Science Courses consist of Graphic Science I and Graphic Science II, With Graphic Science I, as bef … More ore, descriptive geometry will be taught with hand drawing as the base. With Graphic Science H, commercial graphic processing software can be experienced. At the University of Tokyo, graphic science is being taught as a liberal arts subject, but it is also being served as a basic subject for engineering design and drawing. Therefore, 3D-CAD is the main graphic processing software being introduced. However, 3D-CAD has been developed for geometric modeling and for application of the modeling data to design analyses, and is not entirely satisfactory for presentation functions such as generation of perspective views, rendering or animated display. Therefore, to supplement the study of these functions, CG software is also being introduced. In this course, the experience of 3D-CAD/CG is the main educational objective, but by introducing geometric problems as examples and assignments, it is designed to mutually complement with descriptive geometry education (Graphic Science I). The results of the detailed analyses on the classes in 2005, 2006 and 2007, including the analyses on students'' reports for assignments, work time it took to complete the assignments, term-end test, evaluation of the enhancement of students'' spatial abilities, and students'' lecture evaluation, indicated that the curriculum design is appropriate.
