Abstract

The course of model making is one of the most primary activities of the design education. In this paper a new method is proposed with the aim of making the model capable of holding and manipulating the shape features in order to support the students in the design process. The key concept of this study is virtual model making system (VMMS) which consists of numerous sets of rules. This experience of model designing and making course was applied, in order to make students learning more interesting and interactive as well as increase the studying efficiency. The system was described briefly and a new teaching method of model making course was introduced.
