I am a teacher of engineering with nearly 10 years experience. I endeavour to produce a range of resources that will help students to really engage with engineering as a subject and later, a profession. My resources are always produced to make it as easy as possible for you to change, edit add and remove content, or you can simply use the resources as they are. My main focus is to give you all of the information you will need to teach a subject, with as little fuss as possible.

COSHH in Engineering session

(2)
Powerpoint and activities to fit an hours session, more or less depending on the level of students. Teacher will need to have knowledge of some of the materials used in the categories of COSHH. Described from an engineering perspective. Feel free to cut, paste and use the resources for any other purpose.
Technical Drawing Workbooks
stevegowansstevegowans

Technical Drawing Workbooks

(2)
Engineering/Technical drawing workbooks for 12-19 year old students (depending on previous knowledge, skills etc.) Comprehensive introduction to technical drawing covering topics such as - Sketching, isometric projection, orthographic projection, dimensioning and British standards. Good to use in the case of covering lessons as most of the activities are self explanatory. Many drawings have been used from textbooks - repurposed with original activities to develop skills in DT and technical drawing. Feel free to cut, paste and use any images, information and activities to suit your teaching.
Material Grouping chart

Material Grouping chart

(1)
A chart that shows how materials are grouped together. I have this laminated so that during the intro to materials students can write on it with whiteboard markers. It's just a simple sheet that I use quite regularly. Feel free to copy, paste, chop and change anything you want.
Technical drawing activities
stevegowansstevegowans

Technical drawing activities

(1)
Tech drawing powerpoint that starts by showing the different types of line involved in engineering drafting and moves on to an animation that explains the methods behind drawing circles in isometric projection. Following this are several activities that use the technique, advancing in complexity. You could easily produce a handout from the frames in the slides, allowing for differentiation in ability. Feel free to cut, paste and change anything to suit your own style.
CAD (Solidedge) Introduction

CAD (Solidedge) Introduction

(1)
Activities that are designed to ease students into 3D modelling on Solidedge. Starts very basic but increases in difficulty throughout. Requires a teacher with a fair level of Solidedge experience. Feel free to cut, paste and chop anything you want in order to suit your own style.
Solidedge/Engineering drawing worksheet
stevegowansstevegowans

Solidedge/Engineering drawing worksheet

(1)
A formative assessment worksheet featuring a range of isometric and orthographic projections that start simple and work up to complex. I produced this for a formative assessment during Solidedge teaching, in order to assess the progress of my whole cohort. I used a cloud based folder system for each student for me to assess the work. It could be easily be used for manual Technical drawing classes. Feel free to cut, paste and use any drawings, or sketches for other purposes.
Materials Engineering Booklet
stevegowansstevegowans

Materials Engineering Booklet

(1)
29 page Engineering materials booklet covering the main introductory principles of metals, grain structures and properties; including facts, information, images and diagrams. It goes from basic materials properties through to grain structure, crystallisation and mechanical properties. There are no activities in the booklet itself however they could be easily produced from the large amount of content. Booklet is suited for post 16 - Level 3 introductory classes or advanced Level 2 classes, it could even be purposed for GCSE chemistry students. Please feel free to cut, chop and paste anything in the booklet to suit your own needs.
Materials Revision Sheet
stevegowansstevegowans

Materials Revision Sheet

(3)
Worksheet placed onto a powerpoint slide, revises properties of materials, electron configuration and the periodic table. Good to use as a starter activity or as a quick quiz, for use it can be printed as it is or printed as an a3 sheet. Feel free to chop, change, cut or paste anything you might find useful.
Engineering Drawing resource
stevegowansstevegowans

Engineering Drawing resource

(1)
Resource for engineering or technical drawing. Includes large (124 slide) PPT file with lots of activities and information, and worksheets that follow some of the presentations activities. When I use this resource I hide the slides that I don’t need and only use the parts that I want to use for a given lesson. Please feel free to chop, change and cut anything in the resource (you will notice that it isn’t in widescreen but if you copy the slides you want into a newer version of PPT it should still look good)
Plastics and Moulding

stevegowansstevegowans

Mechanical Engineering Apprentice Fitter Revision pack

(0)
8 Resources designed for the teaching of BTEC and City & Guilds Engineering qualifications. Each document covers some of the specifications for a range of engineering information, this information can then be cut down into activities or used as part of your wider engineering teaching. Please feel free to cut, chop and paste anything in these resources to suit your teaching needs.
Measurement Bundle
stevegowansstevegowans

Measurement Bundle

4 Resources
A great way to introduce students to engineering measurement, tolerances and limits and fits. A great way for a cover teacher to easily teach with little notice - simply base some activities from the content in the packages. Can be easily repurposed to suit a wide range of teaching areas.

Engineering materials activity - Useful for having students complete for research and then to keep for revision purposes. Great for a cover session where the cover teacher might have IT use, students can complete a meaningful task that will be useful to them later in the course. Used with Level 1 and 2 BTEC Engineering students - only minimal teacher intervention required for students to show progress in engineering materials.

Lots of information about how plastics are formed, what they are used for and what they are made from. Designed for use with 6th form students - but if theres anything that I need from the presentation I generally cut it out and use for a specific lesson. Feel free to cut and paste anything you want from the presentation to meet your needs.
