blessings and safeguards in terms of financial, physical, and mental health
during our study effort to complete the research. We would like to offer our
heartfelt appreciation for our research. Christian Caritativo, the instructor and
coordinator, and Ms. Marry Whil A. Montederamos, LPT at Tagum City College
of Science and Technology Foundation Inc., our research adviser, for enabling
us to conduct research and for offering vital advice during this research
project. Working and studying under their supervision was a wonderful honor.
We'd also like to express our gratitude for their companionship, sensitivity,
and amazing personalities.
We would like to express our deepest gratitude to the study
participants for their participation and support. Their earnestness in
responding provided us with a greater knowledge of how to examine the
data. We, the researchers, are profoundly thankful to our guardians and
parents for their care, sacrifices, effort, and concerns in teaching and
preparing us for the future, as well as spiritually sustaining us throughout our
lives. Special appreciation goes to the researchers who contributed their time
and effort to the success of this research endeavor.
To God be the glory.

ABSTRACT
Drafting is the process of creating technical drawings and plans. This
study intends to investigate the experiences of drafting technology students
facing difficulties in manual drawing and using AutoCAD software application.
The study used a phenomenological methodology and conducts interviews
with participants in in-depth interviews and focused group discussions to
collect information regarding drafting technology students' experiences,
including surveys and interviews.
The findings demonstrated that there are various reasons on what are
the experiences of drafting technology students, including difficulties in
AutoCAD Software Application, enhancement of skills, and advantages of
using AutoCAD Software application. With the use of software applications
like AutoCAD, technical drafting has become more efficient than ever before.
These applications allow designers to create complex designs in a fraction of
the time it would take to draw them by hand.
Overall, technology has transformed the field of technical drafting,
making it faster, more accurate, and more collaborative. By adapting to new
technologies, drafters can improve their efficiency, accuracy, and productivity,
making technical drafting an essential part of any design process.
