This paper discusses an interdisciplinary program at Kalamazoo Valley Community College in which the student is trained in several communications media: data processing, engineering graphics, technical reporting (oral and written), as well as various options. Additional work in computer graphics and technical illustration is included.

In Trubilin State Agricultural University of Kuban there are created machinery working devices as screw drums allowing the assurance of motion of bulk particles at their horizontal location and also promoting the intensity of particles interaction between each other and with the walls of screw drums which widens technological potentialities and decreases dimensions of equipment and its weight. In the paper there are shown various sorts of screw drums and analytical methods of the study of physical phenomena taking place in the contact area of bulk particles. The search of a screw drum design was carried out by the methods of descriptive geometry and engineering graphics with the aid of the “Compass-3D” program complex. The apparatus of dimensionless kinematic functions (similarity invariant) and the analysis of dimensionalities allowing the investigation not one such a case but their infinite number united by the community of properties was used.

Our group is developing a new project-centered “Freshman Engineering Graphics and Design” course. The project-centered approach emphasizes a desire for individual learning, teamwork, and communication abilities using modern computer graphics tools. The modular graphics and design curriculum emphasizes the development of a 3-D geometric computer model and application of this digital database to design analysis, simulation, prototyping, and documentation. The students work as a team to dissect a common mechanical assembly. They measure the parts, make hand sketches, build computer models, perform various analyses, and make rapid prototypes of their assembly. At the conclusion of this integrated graphics and design project, the team assembles a final report. This paper presents some preliminary results in implementing these new course objectives in the Spring 2002 semester.
