This course will engage students in the process of designing sites for development. In this process students will engage with the entitlement process for site plan development, the research of infrastructure for site plan development, and the design of site plans, including parking, building layout, access requirements, and sustainability. AutoCad Civil 3D will be used extensively in this course. Students interested in learning the process and practicalities of site plan design should take this class. The class will include the design of a site plan as a class project. It is usually expected that students will spend approximately 2 hours of study time outside of class for every one hour in class.

Q1
Thinking back to before the semester started I was looking through the classes that I wanted to register for and I saw a site plan with Professor X as one of the classes offered. After reading the course description I realized that I have been wanting to take this course or a course Similar to this course along time ago. I remember When I was doing my bachelors, I spoke to Professor X About registering to an a class that will help improve my AutoCAD Skills. Professor X referred me to a class that is offered at SD College and to another one that is the IT department. I graduated my bachelor’s and still didn’t take such course. So, since This class was offered, I registered in it. At first my expectations in this class was to learn how to use AutoCAD professionally. Yes, I had my ups and downs but I knew I would learn it by the end of the semester. Maybe because I have worked on AutoCAD before, during my senior project it wasn’t as hard to learn the steps. I almost learned everything I wanted to learn Throughout this class.
At the beginning of this class professor X was explaining an introduction about AutoCAD and how we are going to establish Our project using this software. He showed how to Draw the title block at the beginning of the semester then he showed how to start the tittle block writing the name of the company, name of the engineer, name of the project and all the details in it.
Q2: I wish we had more small different projects that would have taught us the tools more, ummi wsh we had more time , and that we had quizzes on the autocad itself.
Please elaborate and make up some stuff
Q3: you can make up saying : yes I learned a lot , that class taught all tools I needed to know about autocad ,yes it was competitive because of the short time but I stil learnd from it ,,,,,
