More Information

This course prepares students for teaching in the public school system. Topics covered are done at an introductory level and include basic electronics and activities based on the use of a CNC wood router. The topics will be covered using lecture and hands-on activities.

EDUC-1086Organizing Technology Education Facilities
More Information

This course is designed to introduce students to the design requirements that must be considered in the safe and effective operation of an Industrial Arts/Technology Education facility. Emphasis will be placed on safety, movement of students and materials, locating equipment, and the physical size and shape of the laboratory. Students will also examine the specifications, purchasing, and placement of required equipment tools and supplies. A variety of instructional and organizational systems used in Industrial Arts education will also be explored. Additionally, students will gain experience on the organization, maintenance, and repair of tools and equipment found in an Industrial Arts lab.

EDUC-1116Graphic Communications Technology 1
More Information

Graphic Communications Technology can be described as an area encompassing all of the content of table drafting, printing, art and graphic arts, as well as other communication processes used in business and industry. Traditional practices will be covered if they apply to existing practices in the schools, but the emphasis will be on computerized technology that is used in the public school system. Graphic Communications Technology is concerned with all methods used to convey information in any format and in any quantity from person to person. The course is delivered in a modified competency based format. This first year course will cover communication theory, message analysis, sketching, mechanical drafting, introductory CAD, computer assisted type style modification, screen printing and introduction to darkroom photography.

EDUC-2070Construction Technology - Intermediate
More Information

This applied technology course introduces a complete survey of problem-solving approaches, designs, resources, systems, and impacts of technology in education. Students will explore this rapidly growing field through activity-oriented instruction. Studies within this area are complemented by student-conducted lab activities which emphasize the technical, human, and cultural aspects of technology education. It is the intention of this course to give students entry-level skills for technology education in the public school system.

EDUC-2071Power and Energy Technology-Intermediate
More Information
