At the end of the eight-hour seminar, the 3rd year BSIT, BSIS, and BSCS participants were given an evaluation form to evaluate the seminar. Participants suggest some seminar about Game making using PHP, PC Troubleshooting, AutoCAD & Web programs, Photoshop after effects, 3d Games & Robotic activities, Movie making using Sony Vegas, and Adobe Photoshop.
Participants commented that the seminar was great and the resource person explained the topic very well. Others also commented that the time allotted for the seminar was not enough because understanding the whole application of AutoCAD is not easy. In general the seminar was successful and they learned new things.
Computer technology has many faces, technology that produces and contributes to the positive and significant grounds of our daily lives. We cannot imagine a life without it. Through different high technology present today, interests and skills are developing for the progression of the society.One of the faces of today’s modern technology is AutoCAD. A software that is developed and created to help people design buildings, products, or public spaces ,instead of drawing up plans hand in hand .It produces 2D or 3D outputs on incomparable speeds, thus saving human time and effort to a large extent. By using AutoCAD, we can design and shape the world us.
In order to understand the technological art brought by AutoCAD, the Group 4 BSCS students conducted an eight-hour seminar workshop about the said application. This activity was participated by forty (40) junior BSCS, BSIT, and BSIS students on the 28th January 2012 at Computer Laboratory 2, Sullivan Building of Notre Dame of Midsayap College, Midsayap, Cotabato.
At the end of the seminar-workshop, the participants identified and used the different drawing and drafting tools of AutoCAD and created an architectural design using the said application.

AUTOCAD DRAFTING AND DESIGNING SEMINAR WORKSHOP
Seminar Outline
Course Description:
This course is designed to bring the drafter, designer, engineer or new user to a productive level of experience. It is an appropriate course of all design disciplines and for individuals who edit, view or work with others that create design content.
In this training course, participants will use AutoCAD 2007 as a tool in drafting and designing activities. There will be a brief introduction about benefits of being expert in this kind of tool, as well as familiarization of its environment. From there, the participants will be well verse in using it and have a comfy time drafting and designing.
Course Objectives:
By completing this course, participants are expected to:
· Create accurate dimensioned drawings;
· Understand how coordinate system is used to define locations of drawing in CAD;
· Learn to use helpful Commands in drafting ;
· Modify drawings or objects with ease;
· Create two-dimensional design drawing
