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.

Technical drawing activities

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.
Engineering Drawing/CAD activities

Engineering Drawing/CAD activities

(0)
A set of activities used as stretch and challenge for more able students when working on CAD (Solidedge). Could be used for other types of CAD, or even manual technical drawing classes. Feel free to cut, paste and chop anything you like to suit your teaching 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.
CAD (Solidedge) Introduction
stevegowansstevegowans

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.
CAM research session
stevegowansstevegowans

CAM research session

(0)
Questions designed for students to research around the appropriate topics that feature in the City & Guilds Engineering CAM (Level 2) unit. Basic way of getting students to revise - My students quite enjoyed it and because of the way I worded questions, I had very good success rates. Feel free to cut any questions out that you want in order to suit your own teaching style.
BTEC Level 1/2 - Unit 1 - The Engineered World Revision Booklet
stevegowansstevegowans

BTEC Level 1/2 - Unit 1 - The Engineered World Revision Booklet

(0)
Booklet that covers a wide range of the specification for the BTEC unit 1 - The Engineered World. All activities are fully answered already - before issuing to students you might want to spend bit of time deleting the answers to produce a student copy. I have done it this way to give you freedom of choice as to the information you leave in the book. Feel free to chop and change any of the activities that you wish to deliver as individual activities.
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.
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.
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.

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.
Thread Cutting - Tapping holes and cutting external threads.
stevegowansstevegowans

Thread Cutting - Tapping holes and cutting external threads.

(0)
Handout that would be useful for a cover teacher to teach students how to produce threaded holes and bar in a workshop setting. If workshop facilities are not available, students can use the questions at the end of the document to revise for theory based exams. Feel free to chop and change anything you want in order to meet your teaching needs.
Adhesives for use in Engineering and Automotive industries

Adhesives for use in Engineering and Automotive industries

(0)
Activity and Information sheet on the subject of Adhesives. There is a description and activities on all kinds of engineering adhesives to aid in teaching students of BTEC and City & Guilds in engineering (or pretty much any skilled trade where adhesives would play a part) Feel free to chop and change whatever you like to suit your own preferences.

Plastics - forms, properties and manufacturing processes
stevegowansstevegowans

Plastics - forms, properties and manufacturing processes

(0)
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.
Metallic Structures

Presentation with lots of ceramics manufacturing information. Designed to be used with mid level materials students (BTEC Level 3, more or less) Lots of information so I would cut out the slides that you want and make your lessons around that. Feel free to chop and change anything you like.
Material Grouping chart
stevegowansstevegowans

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.
Level 1/2 Engineering materials activity
stevegowansstevegowans

Level 1/2 Engineering materials activity

(0)
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.
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)
