The video lessons are structured to match the exam’s objective domains and follow the typical workflow and features of the Autodesk® Revit® Architecture software, including sections on modeling and materials, families, documentation, views, and Revit project management. In the course, you'll review advanced modeling architectural topics and work with walls, floors, roofs, ceilings, stairs, columns, and rooms. You'll also gain an understanding of exam topics such as family categories and types, phases and design options, schedules, and worksharing. Brush up on selection sets, detail components, color schemes, levels and grids, and much more.

What You Will Learn

  • Work with architectural and site elements, element materials, selection sets, and rooms and areas.
  • Create and manage views and annotations, work with families, and develop schedules.
  • Use workflows and processes such as worksharing, exporting and printing, and project maintenance and management.
  • Demonstrate the skills and knowledge required for taking the Autodesk Certified Professional: Revit for Architectural Design exam.

Syllabus

WEEK 1
Design Modeling, Modeling, and Model Documentation
In Week 1, we'll cover the key aspects of starting an architectural project, from importing CAD files to using massing tools and creating views. You’ll get an in-depth review of architectural elements and learn how to work with rooms and areas.

WEEK 2
Families, Documentation, Views, and Revit Project Management
In Week 2, We'll start with an overview of content creation and management, with deep dives on families and parameters. You’ll learn about drawing and adding revisions to sheets, as well as printing and exporting them. You’ll learn how to perform collaboration and project management within Revit. Finally, you’ll discover some best practices for conducting maintenance of Revit projects.

Control of Nonlinear Spacecraft Attitude Motion (Coursera)

This course trains you in the skills needed to program specific orientation and achieve precise aiming goals for spacecraft moving through three dimensional space. First, we cover stability definitions of nonlinear dynamical systems, covering the difference between local and global stability. We then analyze and apply Lyapunov's Direct Method to prove these stability properties, and develop a nonlinear 3-axis attitude pointing control law using Lyapunov theory. Finally, we look at alternate feedback control laws and closed loop dynamics.

University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

VLSI CAD Part II: Layout (Coursera)

A modern VLSI chip is a remarkably complex beast: billions of transistors, millions of logic gates deployed for computation and control, big blocks of memory, embedded blocks of pre-designed functions designed by third parties (called “intellectual property” or IP blocks). How do people manage to design these complicated chips? Answer: a sequence of computer aided design (CAD) tools takes an abstract description of the chip, and refines it step-wise to a final design.

Coexistence in Medieval Spain: Jews, Christians, and Muslims (Coursera)

This course explores Jewish, Christian, and Muslim intercultural relations in Iberia from the Visigothic era (6th century CE) until the creation of Queen Isabel I and King Ferdinand II Catholic Spain (late 15th century). We evaluate the many identities of the peninsula known as Christian Hispania, Jewish Sefarad, and Islamic al-Andalus. We trace the origins and trajectory of conflict between these communities (the Muslim conquest of Spain, Christian Reconquista, prohibitions blocking intermixing of peoples, and expulsions).
