COURSE DESCRIPTION:
In this course, more emphasis is allowed for individualizing "learning-by-doing" and the solution of the problems encountered. In addition to project work (student selected), special emphasis is made on particular processes not necessarily given full attention by the student previously. Such processes are cutting, brazing, special castings, various positions in welding, machine and bench work are among those concentrated on. Every project, when completed, should have a neat plan to accompany it for grading purposes. When necessary, special assignments are given to help cement ideas into the mind of the student.
COURSE GOALS:
1. To develop positive attitudes about the working world and to take an active interest in industrial career choices.
2. To develop safe and proper use of hand tools, power tools, and machines used in the metal and welding industry.
3. To understand the safe sequence of procedures involved to complete the fabrication of metal and welding projects.
