The creation of this e-learning material responds to the need that our students at University Carlos III de Madrid have to reach a minimum level at the beginning (Zero Course), and during (Support Course) the first course on technical drawing. First, the need is made out through results of surveys carried out in previous years. Then, some e-learning applications are exposed, among which the most appropriate to the need are chosen. Finally, the designed courses are described including all the technical resources. The results of the surveys carried out on the students of these courses, as well as some statistics of their qualifications, are also presented.eng© Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019.Support courseTechnical drawingsAmerican Society For Training And Development (ASTD)Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC)Video numberconference paperIngeniería Mecánicahttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-00108-7_21open access186194New Trends in Educational Activity in the Field of Mechanism and Machine Theory: 2014-2017.CC/0000033605
