Model Machine Shop for Drafting Instruction.
Jackson, Carl R.
The development and implementation of a two-year interdisciplinary course integrating a machine shop and drafting curriculum are described in the report. The purpose of the course is to provide a learning process in industrial drafting featuring identifiable orientation in skills that will enable the student to develop competencies that are directly related to the world of trade and industrial work. Components utilized in the instructional approach are behavioral objectives, individualized instruction, and interdepartmental activities where there is an exchange of vocational and academic students working together on projects. Short case histories of positive behavioral changes in five students during the course are given along with brief recommendations for the establishment of similar programs. Appended are the behavioral objectives for the following course units: History of drafting, care and use of equipment, orthographics, geometric construction, sectionals, and auxiliaries and revolutions. Also included are a list of related occupations, two plans for equipment purchase, and a student performance rating sheet. (RG)
