    Default ED34-1: Whose Line Is It Anyway?

    Instructors: Bill Fane - British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT) and CADALYST magazine

    Class Description: As an instructor, do you always know who actually created the AutoCAD® drawing file that a particular student submitted? Recycling and reusing may be desirable in the real world, but not in the classroom. Unfortunately, techniques such as cut-and-paste, rename, copy, and simple editing can make it easy and tempting for students to take shortcuts. This course will explore several techniques you can use to determine the origin of a particular file. How you set up an assignment can have a great effect on how easy it is to trace a file's origin. We will also explore how AutoCAD creates a drawing file. You might be surprised at some of the information embedded within it, and how easy it is to extract and compare that information using standard AutoCAD commands. We will also study an AutoLISP® program you can use to determine exactly who created every single object within a drawing, and when it was created. This program has virtually eliminated cheating problems at BCIT.
