Learning targets
- Label every component in a sketch.
- Add dimension lines with values and units taken from real measurements.
- Caption every figure.
A sketch is evidence
Annotated sketches help the reader understand ideas. Name every part, show dimensions with units, and caption the figure so it can be referred to (Fig. 3).
Dimensions come from the part
A dimension is a measurement you took — ScribEN never fills one in for you. If you haven't measured it yet, leave it and say so.
Second-year extension:
- Add materials callouts and an assembly note to a technical drawing.
