Significats de technical graphics en anglès

Teachers welcomed the technical graphics exam at both higher and ordinary level.

STUDENTS doing the higher level technical graphics exam faced a lot of hard thinking yesterday afternoon, according to teachers.

Students sitting the technical graphics exam in the morning should have been fine, according to TUI subject representative Micheál Martin.

The Junior Cert technical graphics paper offered choices, challenges and a bit of rock 'n' roll thrown in for good measure.

Hamish scanned some of the technical graphics, bobbing over both speaker and audience like blimps filled with charts and animated data.

These were just two of the questions on the technical graphics exam paper which tested Junior Certificate students at ordinary level yesterday.

While the technical graphics paper was in tune with the syllabus, ordinary-level materials technology was surprisingly difficult, according to Junior Cert teachers.

The subject was introduced in 2007 to replace technical graphics, which was losing candidates and was regarded by teachers as too narrow.

There was widespread frustration among students who struggled to complete their Junior Cert technical graphics exam within the time allotted, according to teachers.

Junior Cert students faced an almost impossible task of trying to complete their technical graphics exam within the three-hour time limit, according to some teachers.

The subject was introduced in 2007 as a replacement for technical graphics and modernises the syllabus, teaching computer-aided design (CAD) modules alongside traditional draughting techniques.

The 12,623 Junior Certificate students who opted for technical graphics this year were rewarded with an exam "very relevant to everyday life".

Boys outnumbered girls by six to one among higher level candidates in Material Technology, Technical Graphics and the standalone subject of Technology.
