Scheduled Lesson Outline

 

We will be discussing ibewhourpower website, check it out

Your "license" or more properly your training certificate is a legal necessity. DO NOT LET IT LAPSE. This is critically important. You cannot legally work without a valid training certificate, you and the employer are subject to fine if you do so.

Look at your schedule and note how many weeks have "TEST" as the activity. YOU won't be in for all of those days, but do check to see which day YOU will be in before YOU schedule a vacation.

Homework


Here are some guidelines on homework, especially those workbooks with math components like DC Theory and Code Calculations:

  1. Problem write-ups are your permanent record of your understanding of the material covered. You do not get any tests to keep but you do get your lesson materials for future reference
  2. Solutions should be clearly and logically presented. This means that:

•  Your method should always be clear. It should be easy to figure out what you're doing and why.

•  Use a lot of space.

•  Equations should usually be accompanied by prose. Before plunging into algebra, state what it is you're solving for. If there are any non-obvious steps in a calculation, explain them.

•  Write equations in a logical order.

•  Remember: Formula, Substitute, Solve, Label

•  Use pencil, rarely do apprentices get 100% of the lesson questions correct first try

  1. Solutions should stand on their own and should be understandable to someone who hasn't read the problem. This means at times that you should paraphrase the question before writing your response. Use pencil.
  2. We will not give numerical grades on HW assignments. Instead, we will check for an honest effort at completion. I'm mainly interested in seeing that you thoughtfully attacked the problem and wrote it up in a clear and coherent way.
  3. Finally, a few minor requests:

•  Use Pencil

•  Limit the amount of loose paper you turn in

•  Put your name on all your books

•  Do your homework a little at a time rather than cramming it all in to the weekend before school

 

Week 1

Always check the syllabus for the test/lesson breakdown. Syllabus sections 1, 2 and 4 covered this week.

NOTICE THAT SATURDAY IS THE WEEKEND BEFORE YOUR WEEK OF SCHOOL. THIS IS A MANDATORY RIGGING CLASS.
Have appropriate sturdy shoes.

Call or come in for help prior to your week of school if needed. Putting "don't know" or other nonsense in the blank in hopes we will see something written and skip it will hurt you. REALLY DO YOUR OWN HOMEWORK.

Next week is the beginning of semiconductor lessons, this can be a confusing subject for some. Come in for help, we have some videos that explain it pretty well if you are having a hard time with the reading

There is an error in the Code and Practices - 3 book, check out the blog.

Week 2

Homework includes doing review questions from the Fundamentals of Motor Controls Text, turn them in using a spiral notebook.

Electrical Safety Related Work Practices (NFPA 70E) is covered. IF you do NOT pass this test you will NOT get credit for Electrical Safety. This may impact you in the future. This week includes electronics. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS. Come in for help, we have some videos that explain it pretty well if you are having a hard time with the reading. There is critical infomation in the Lab introductory information paragraphs and Lab Summaries. Extra information available about: physical fabrication of transistors , bipolar transistors , LED's , More LED basics and COOL MOVIES , Very Cool overview , amplifiers , more amplifiers , JFET Movie and quiz

All apprentices are required to maintain a first aid card, your refresher is scheduled this week.

NOTICE THAT SATURDAY HAS CURRICULUM AND A TEST SCHEDULED
