1. For Independent Component #1, I plan on taking an
Introduction to Computer Aided Design (CAD) at Citrus College where I will
learn how to render drawings in various dimensions on paper and on computer.
2. Aside the required mentorship log, I plan to show evidence
of my work by submitting both evidence of work I have done in my CAD class,
along with a step by step guide in which I rendered a drawing. I will also provide
a transcript from Citrus College to prove that I actually took the class and
got a grade for it.
3. Through both my mentorship at Planes of Fame and the
California Science Center along with the Research Check, my senior topic is
narrowing down from museums in general to airplane museums. Based upon my
research, aircraft museums are unique in that the museum workers (mainly the
Restoration Team) consult various manuals and blueprints to keep their aircraft
maintained or else the aircraft will break apart and rust. As the Restoration
Team at Planes of Fame relies heavily on blueprints, I believe that with my
knowledge from this class, I will be able to transfer their blueprints onto a
computer so as to make it easier and more accessible to the team. My second reason for taking the class is that
by learning the process in which aircraft are designed, it would allow me to
get a better understanding as to why airplanes in the museum are designed in a
certain way.
