Abstract
There are flawless designs to produce materials used in rapidly developing technology continuously. The drawings of designs are made on paper down to the latest detail and are mostly taught to students at schools. These lessons aim to improve students' three-dimensional thinking abilities. In this study, the topic of perspective and projection in technical drawing lessons that students struggled with is handled. The study aims to show the difference in final achievement between the usage of photograph-assisted training and direct instruction technique in teaching the topic of perspective and projection. The technique of direct instruction is applied to some students at industrial technical school, while photography-assisted training is applied to other students at Anatolian technical high school. According to the exam results at the end of 7 weeks, it is found that the technique of photography-assisted training is very effective in improving perspective and projection technical drawing ability. The usage of this technique by teachers will bring success to technical high school students.
