Advance Metals Course Descriptions
Introduction to Technology and Engineering
Grade 9 - 12
2 semesters - 1 credit
This one credit course emphasizes all areas of technology. Students will experience welding as they rotate through Arc, Mig and Oxyacetylene welding labs. Projects will also be completed on the metal lathe, plasma cutter, and Oxyacetylene torch. Students will build a small project in the woods room and experience introductory drafting and electricity.
Students in this class will:
• Learn how to weld with wire feed, arc, and oxyacetylene welders
• Learn operations such as facing and turning on the metal lathe
• Build projects and produce basic joinery techniques from wood
• Produce 3-view orthographic drawings
Welding
Northcentral Technical College
Grade 10 - 12
1 semester – .75 high school credit & 2 college credits
Standards: In order to receive college credit, student must receive a B or higher in class.
Prerequisite: Intro to Technology and Engineering or teacher permission.
This course is offered as transcripted credit through Northcentral Technical College
Welding is a one-semester course designed to give students an in-depth experience in the areas of metals processing and metals science. Metals shop safety practices will be stressed in a variety of lab settings. Each student will work through welding labs that include Arc, Mig, Tig, and Oxyacetylene welding. Students will also utilize oxy-acetylene and plasma cutting.
Students in this class will:
• Demonstrate safe and effective use of metalworking equipment
• Produce welds with Arc, Mig, Tig, and Oxy-acetylene welding processes
• Demonstrate Oxy-acetylene and plasma cutting operations
Advanced Metals
Grades 11 and 12
2 semesters - 1 credit
$40 course fee ($20 a semester)
Prerequisite: Welding
This course is designed to provide the students with advanced experiences in the hands-on units covered in the welding course. The students will complete a required sheet metal, machine project and a project of interest for the NTC welding competition. The required project will be produced using machining skill as well as sheet metal fabrication equipment. The instruction will cover welding and fabricating in addition to advanced metalworking techniques and procedures.
Students in this class will:
• Understand sheet metal layout and manipulation
• Demonstrate proper use of the lathe and milling machine
• Demonstrate ability to plan and construct an entire project
