Exams Exam 1: Applied Mathematics (15 Points) Exam 2: Basic Blueprint Reading (10 Points) Exam 3: Maintenance Prints And Schematics (10 Points) Exam 4: Maintenance Printreading Project (10 Points) |
|||||||||
| B. Laboratory Expectations: | |||||||||
| Laboratory
(20 Points) Applied Mathematics & Basic Blueprint Reading: Problem-solving sessions which include problems from the text and reference material. Maintenance Blueprints: Problem-solving sessions which include the use of prints and schematics to locate and solve problems. |
|||||||||
| C. Field Work: | |||||||||
| N/A |
|||||||||
| D. Other Evaluation Methods: | |||||||||
| Participation
(10 Points) Based on instructor observation during the course, each student will be evaluated on participation activities. Evaluation parameters to include active participation in team discussions, being prepared, efficient use of lab time, striving to achieve more than minimum requirements, and regular attendance. |
