Introduction to Computer-Aided Design (CAD)

This topic introduces learners to CAD software for creating 2D drawings. Students will explore interfaces, use command tools, draw basic shapes, and perform auxiliary tasks like trimming and dimensioning. Proficiency in CAD is increasingly important in modern design and technology fields and is recognised in the Zambian syllabus. It enhances digital literacy, supports innovation, and prepares students for higher-level studies and careers in design and engineering, fitting within the CBC's focus on 21st-century skills.
