Description Below is a selection of unit standards that could be delivered to students to give students exposure tomechanical engineering in a practical context. The unit standards are delivered in a series of practical projects predetermined and built from plans. Delivery also involves the students developing a personal project which forms a log of evidence towards attainment of the standards. The emphasis is on developing practical skills and knowledge. Assessment All standards are Level 2 and internally assessed over the course of the year using Industry Training Organisation delivery and moderated assessment material. US21911 Demonstrate knowledge of safety on engineering worksites. (2 credits) US21907 Demonstrate and apply knowledge of safe welding procedures under supervision. (3 credits) US21909 Demonstrate knowledge of fasteners used in mechanical engineering. (1 credit) US2395 Demonstrate and apply knowledge of the selection, use, and care of engineering hand tools. (4 credits) US2396 Select, use and maintain portable hand held engineering power tools. (4 credits) Note: At the time of writing the Industry Training Organisation responsible for engineering unit standards is currently reviewing some units and some changes may be made to the units delivered prior to 2021.
Assessment A course of approximately 20 credits will be offered from a selection of the following standards. The standards offered will be selected based on the student’s strengths and interests. AS91610 Develop a conceptual design considering fitness for purpose in the broadest sense. (6 credits – internal) AS91611 Develop a prototype considering fitness for purpose in the broadest sense. (6 credits –
internal) AS91612
Demonstrate understanding of how technological modeling supports technological development and implementation. (4 credits – external) AS91617 Undertake a critique of a technological outcome’s design. (4 credits – external) AS91620 Implement complex procedures to integrate parts using resistant materials to make a specified product. (6 credits – internal) AS91622 Implement complex procedures tomake a specified product using a Computer Numerical Controlled (CNC) machine. (4 credits – internal)
