Technology - Construction L2
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: T. McArdle.
Course Highlights: This course is offered for those students interested in gaining construction skills and knowledge through designing and making a cabinet project which modernises joinery materials and fixtures. The course involves practical project work in the technology workshop, supported by BCATS L2 theory units covering modern joinery materials and techniques, workshop safety, power tools and sketching and drawing. To develop students’ 3D computer modelling skills, part of their project will need to be designed and made using the school’s new CNC router.
Vocational Pathway: Manufacturing and Technology, Construction and Infrastructure, Primary Industries.
This course can lead to: School based Level 3 Construction courses. This course supports students’ Gateway work experience, and/or Trades courses.
