Work Experience Training Hr

Power Mechanics is a course designed to give students a working knowledge of basic engine systems with an emphasis on the 4-stroke "Otto Cycle" engine. Basic math skills will be utilized in this course. Two-stroke and diesel engines will also be discussed and studied. Topics: safe use of hand tools and machines, principles of engine operation, tools and precision measurement, fuel systems, ignition systems, engine rebuilding techniques, and use of technical manuals. Capstone project: Successfully rebuild a small single cylinder 4-stroke engine with a partner, to be provided by the student team. Honors Option Prerequisite: None

This is a beginning course for the student with no experience in auto repair/technology. Please note the prerequisites. Basic math skills will be utilized in this course. Topics: Safety, lubrication, preventative maintenance, engine, transmission, and final drive systems, used car and safety inspections, emission systems, tires and wheels, OBDII computerized onboard diagnostics, cooling systems, electrical system diagnosis, ability to use technical manuals/programs to effect repairs. Capstone projects: Each student performs a minimum of 1 each of: Used car/safety inspection, tire dismount/mount/balance, OBDII diagnosis, and electrical system load test/diagnosis. Note: vehicles will be repaired during the class, with student vehicles getting priority. ACC Prerequisite: Power Mechanics or Administrative Approval

Advanced Auto Technology/Engineering: A course designed for the student who wishes to pursue in-depth repair of vehicles. Please note prerequisite and that basic math skills will be required. During the course of this block class, we will be performing many common repairs on student and staff vehicles. Engine and transmission rebuilding will not be covered. Capstone project: Each student will be required to perform a minimum of 1 "thesis project". This project requires pre-approval by the instructor, and should be a complex job that requires planning and problem-solving. Ambitious students are encouraged to perform multiple thesis projects (the record is 7) and can save thousands of dollars in repair bills. Honors Option This class meets for two class periods each semester. Driver's license is recommended ACC Prerequisite: Intro to Auto Technology/Engineering

This introductory course is a combination of Exploring Woodworking and Intro to Construction Trades. This course focuses on woodworking and several areas of the construction trades industry (electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and carpentry). Career paths in woodworking and construction will be presented and hands-on activities will be emphasized. Topics will include hand and power tool safety, wood anatomy and identification, basic blue print reading, and assembly processes in wood working. You will leave this class with a completed woods project and the prerequisites for either Construction Trades I or Cabinetry and Advanced Woodworking. Prerequisite: none Additional Subsection::Industrial Technology Electives Subsubsection::Carpentry

This 18-week course will focus specifically on the basics of building a structure. During the course, students will build structures to practice the basics of concrete and blocking, framing, exterior finishing, footing, foundation and carpentry. Students will work directly with a mentor from the construction trades. This class meets for two class periods each semester at CTECH. Prerequisite: Wood Products and Technology or Administrative Approval

This 18-week course will focus specifically on the details of completing a structure. During one quarter of the course, students will focus on sheet metal, plumbing electrical. The second quarter will find students engaged in working on interior finishing, sheet rocking, flooring, building staircases, and more to complete a home. This course meets for two class periods for one semester at CTECH. Prerequisite: Construction Trades I

Through the introductory course, students will discover their passion and choose the machining or welding pathway to continue their learning. Students will learn the history of manufacturing, robotics and automation, manufacturing processes, computer modeling, manufacturing equipment, flexible manufacturing systems and an introduction to welding. To assist in learning M and G codes students will use CNC equipment. As part of the course, students will get the opportunity to visit local businesses to see the career opportunities available within the field of manufacturing. CTECH CTECH Honors Prerequisite: None

Through hands-on experiences, students will begin to understand the process of machining. Students will have access to industry standard equipment and machines to complete course activities and projects. Upon completion of this course, students will have developmental skills in the following areas: * basic lathe operations * principles of machining operations * machinist math * reading shop blueprints This class meets for two class periods each semester at CTECH. Prerequisite: PLTW: Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM)

Machine Technology II offers students an opportunity to advance their skills within the area of machining. Coursework will include a capstone project culminating the coursework within the machining pathway. Students will end the machining pathway with the following skills that can transfer to post-secondary programs or into an entry level machinist career path: * advanced lathe operations * advanced mill operations * blueprint reading * applied machinist geometry * mastercam - CNC technology This course meets for two class periods for one semester at CTECH. Prerequisite: Machine Technology I

In this foundational course, students will begin to develop skills in the area of gas metal arc welding (GMAW) and shielded metal arc welding (SMAW). There will be a focus on safety standards and the operations of a shop. Students will have access to industry standard welding stations to complete course projects and activities. The majority of this course is completed through lab work. Major outcomes: * take ATC Oxy - Fuel course * introduction to GMAW (Wire Feed Welding)/SMAW This course meets for two class periods in one semester @ CTECH Prerequisite: None

Students will continue to develop welding skills in two processes: SMAW on mild steel and GTAW on mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. Students will expand their knowledge of shop equipment and safety standards. Students will be introduced to blueprint reading, multi-process training and will apply welding math principles within their projects. Upon completion of this course, students can earn the AWS welder certification available in SMAW and GTAW. This course meets for two class periods in one semester at CTECH. Prerequisite: Welding Technology I

This course will consist of advanced manufacturing operations that would take place in a professional cabinetmaking environment. Students will learn advanced methods such as product design and planning, machine setups, jigs and fixture design and usage, and use of more professional types of machines and tooling. Students will also learn other methods and applications for a larger variety of finishes and hardware selections. Minimum standards will be established for projects and new skills learned during the course. Speakers from industry and field trips to construction facilities will be used to further the understanding of the student knowledge base and to help foster working relationships. Prerequisite: Wood Products and Technology
