(Miguel) On my resume I have knowledge of AutoCAD and, yes, I learned that from my engineering degree [program] but I really (emphasis added) learned it from my summer internship when I worked with my mentor doing some CAD projects with AutoCAD mechanical. When you’re doing an AutoCAD design a lot of shapes are already built into the program so you’re creating the design for the electrical person to follow. It’s cool because I learned how to build the basic components myself. (Alexis)While

enhancements. Here are a couple of my lessons learned:  To speed your construction, think about geometry first, and algebraic equations 2nd. It is far easier to graphically add a tangent line at a point on a curve then it is to derive the equations algebraically. When the graphical tools no longer meet your goals, then use written equations to complete your construction.  GeoGebra applies default names to each component. I have found it helpful to change these names to carry more intuitive meaning in your final project. For example, rename the Cartesian components of the force F from the defaults u and v to the more descriptive Fx and Fy.  Construction sequence is a major factor in the design of your
