Course Objective

This course aims at function-oriented textile fabric. It is possible to get images of fabric weaved in simulation via yarns prepared in yarn editor , by creating weave, dobby, weaving draft in the dobby package of the Nedgraphics. Analysis file is created by entering the shrinkage percentage, compactness and total amount of the fibers.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   To have proficiency in the use of computers
2   To make appropriate production analysis in the process of transition from design to production, by analyzing technical features of yarn properly
3   To see differences in the fabric in the simulation as a result of the changes in weave and yarn
4   To turn the design into a product available for production in computer environment
5   To turn product image into presentation sheet in computer environment

Mode of Delivery

Face -to- Face

Planned Learning Activities and Teaching Methods

1.Courses
Instructor asks for daily production and pattern reports of dobby fabric and the proper analyses of the physical weaving criteria such as yarn, weaving, raw material, compactness.

2. Revising Sessions and Class Discussions
Every week in the first and last hours of the lecture, instructor organizes revising sessions about being studied dobby fabric samples at different quality levels, being transferred the designs appropriate for current trends to the computer program, proper usage of the program icons on the basis of the given time. Students are promoted significantly to participate in class discussions and state opinions about the designs.

3.Applications
During the process in which transition from design to production is involved, while students determine design facilities and technology required by implemented technique, they make a design by utilizing the knowledge gained in the Computer Aided Design and Production and other technical courses and they assist their applications with this knowledge. On this subject, model applications are shown to the students.

Further Notes About Assessment Methods

Student works are graded according to aesthetic value of the design, creativity, invention, innovative approach, starting point s reflection on the designs, design suitability with the product group, suitability of the technique, weaving, materials determined in the process of transition from design to production, product suitability with design and its applicability in mass production.

Attendance point of the student depends on (1) course attendance, (2) quality of the answer given to the instructor s questions during the lecture and in-class design study, (3) student s contribution in order to create a positive learning environment.
