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.

Health and Safety - Fire Safety in Engineering
stevegowansstevegowans

Health and Safety - Fire Safety in Engineering

(0)
Fire Safety in Engineering. Resource includes a PPT and a worksheet that have been used to teach the City & Guilds Level 3 in Engineering, Unit 301. There are many videos and other resources to support this session on the internet, but as these are subject to copyright I can only use them in the college. Please feel free to cut, copy and paste any part of these resources how ever you see fit.
Turning Handout

Turning Handout

(0)
An old turning assessment activity designed to be used with the old NVQ courses. I still use this when introducing students to the lathe as it helps them to think about the functions and risks. Please cut and paste any of the information and drawings in the handout and use them as you feel best reflects your course.
4 Engineering Based Starter Activities
stevegowansstevegowans

4 Engineering Based Starter Activities

(0)
4 individual Starter activities for Engineering/DT courses. Suitable for year 10 up, these starters are a good way of engaging students and assessing prior knowledge. I have used them on both BTEC and City and Guilds engineering courses. Ready to use - just print them and away you go. Areas covered - Machining, (Resistant) Materials, Material properties and manual handling (health and safety)
Linear Measurement
stevegowansstevegowans

Linear Measurement

(0)
A 22 slide presentation on the subject of linear measurement. The content focuses on the engineering/technology/design side of measurement but will be appropriate for students of all areas that simply need a lesson in measuring. Ideal for a cover lesson if a teacher is away from work. Covers many types of measuring from using rulers through to micrometers, vernier callipers and laser measurement. Feel free to cut, chop and paste any of the slides and any of the content/design to suit your own purposes.
Renewable energy sources and Climate Change

Renewable energy sources and Climate Change

(0)
6 presentations and a document that cover the importance of renewables energy development. Explained as an introductory pack of presentations which are designed to inform a whole range of ages. Ideal for a cover teacher or as an introduction to the world of renewables. Useful in all areas from 8 to 19 (Good for BTEC, City and Guilds, GCSE subjects and more) The solar power document is designed to be used for revision but could be repurposed to create activities and quizzes. All of the presentations are easily editable and could be used for a wide variety of lessons. Feel free to cut, chop and paste anything you like from the slides or document in order to meet your personal needs.
Battery Technology
stevegowansstevegowans

Battery Technology

(0)
Presentation teaching information about battery technology, the materials involved and the reactions that take place in order to produce a charge. Suitable as an introduction to the subject, or as a cover teacher presentation - it's very easy to produce some questions or a short test on the subject to go with the slides. Feel free to repurpose anything in the slides to suit your own needs.
Maintenance Bundle

Maintenance Bundle

8 Resources
Bundle designed to offer class ideas, resources and cover teaching tasks to Engineering/Automotive students. See individual packs for details of available resources. Feel free to chop, change and edit anything you want to meet your needs.
Keys and Keyways - Mechanical Engineering
stevegowansstevegowans

Keys and Keyways - Mechanical Engineering

(0)
A presentation and hand-out that describes the use of a range of keys, keyways, taper lock bushes and frictional turning devices. Used for students studying on BTEC and City & Guilds engineering courses, in 45 minute to 1 hour sessions, but could also be used for automotive, aerospace etc... Resources have been made to make it easy to customise. I removed all of my personal things from the slides and hand-out so changing the format of activities etc. is easy. Feel free to cut and paste anything you want from the resources.
Casting and Forging Interactive Quiz
stevegowansstevegowans

Casting and Forging Interactive Quiz

(0)
A Powerpoint quiz on the subject of Casting and Forging. Used with engineering, DT and some science (Chemistry) subjects. Can be easily modified to change the questions. Fairly foundation level questions. Please feel free to change and modify anything you wish in order to meet your needs.
Measuring using micrometers and Vernier Callipers
stevegowansstevegowans

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 Definitions of Terms
stevegowansstevegowans

Health and Safety Definitions of Terms

(0)
A revision resource showing the definitions of many terms in Health and Safety covered by BTEC and City and Guilds courses. I put them onto a PPT for ease of access but I wouldn't deliver the powerpoint to a class without significant changes. I also have these slides on our Moodle system for the students to use as a pure revision resource, and also as a source of information they can easily use when producing written work.
Safety signs starters

Safety signs starters

(0)
Starter activities used to teach low level (1 and 2) engineering students about the different signs in use. I found it best to have a workshop available with all appropriate signs being used, for the students to use as research. Feel free to cut, paste and chop anything to suit your own needs.
