Course Syllabus Mr. Franzen
Welcome to DDP. Today, we design products to make them more useful and valuable. Many drawing types are chosen because of their basic properties that allow us to view and adapt products for our use. We will be learning about those drawing types and creating a project using the knowledge we discover in class.
