Teaching Aid Tool for the Technical Drawing subject in secondary school. The objective of this research is to develop a prototype innovated from the existing technical drawing tool in school and it’s expected to facilitate student to draw corner and sphere. This prototype is developed via the Oshuga`s methodology where the aspect of modification, analysis and evaluation is running inside of each phase. To measure the efficiency of the prototype, two kinds of test have been conducted. The instrument for the first test is a checklist where it was used by the researcher to measure the prototype from the aspect of pertinence when drawing corner and sphere. The second test involved questionnaires which were distributed among Computer-Aided Design students. The questionnaire contain 12 items which covered 7 items that are related to the usage of the prototype and 5 items that are related to the design of the prototype. In order to fill in the questionnaire, the respondents have to use the prototype at first. The data collected has been analyzed with SPSS V16.0. From the result, it shows that this prototype can draws perfect sphere and corner where the min score is 4.06. In addition, the design of the tool is also suitable for the usage of the school students where the min score is 4.17. The result for the test conducted by the researcher himself also shown the positive result which means the prototype can draw the accurate corner and sphere.
