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.

Measuring using micrometers and Vernier Callipers

Measuring using micrometers and Vernier Callipers

(0)
A worksheet introducing students to measurement using engineering tools. First section describes the methods used to measure using the micrometer, the second section describes measurement using the vernier scale. Both sections are complete with some sample activities to test the students knowledge. I would use the worksheet along with the actual measuring tools so the students can handle the equipment as they work, this will reinforce their learning. It will be helpful for a teacher who already knows how to read both scales to teach as it will require some explanation to support the work.

Health and safety - Manual handling

Health and safety - Manual handling

(0)
PPT presentation about manual handling methods focused towards engineering activities. There are no additional files as the ones I used are freely available on the HSE website, though there are several single/group work activities that can inspire students to put thought into what they are doing. Used to teach students in preparation for the City & Guilds level 3 in engineering externally assessed exam, with excellent results in previous years. Though it has been made with engineering students in mind, the nature of the subject make it ideal for pretty much any subject. As with all other health and Safety subjects, don't forget to check out the HSE website - that place really has helped me to teach health and safety over the years. Please feel free to copy, paste and chop down any part of the resource you want.
