EDSE13002 - Industrial Skills

General Information

Unit Synopsis

This unit investigates the nature and functions of available resources, through the application of inquiry, design and problem-solving methodologies for a range of industrial skills. It requires the student to plan learning experiences, identify and understand a problem or need, select appropriate resources and strategies that may solve the problem, then implement a plan and evaluate the outcome. While participating, students are exposed to a range of intellectual challenges which develop practical skills associated with welding and thermal cutting, safety equipment and safety to current Australian Standards. Welding and Thermal Cutting form the basis of the range of Industrial skills developed over the duration of the unit and involves the design of engineered artefacts, where safety is paramount. Through practical workshops and associated theory, students will apply the knowledge and skills of industrial skills necessary to teach Industrial Technology and Design in the senior years of schooling.
