St. Marguerite d’Youville Secondary School TMJ2O1-01 – Manufacturing Technology – Grade 10 Open February 2010 COURSE DESCRIPTION: This course introduces students to the manufacturing industry by giving them an opportunity to design and fabricate products using a variety of processes, tools, and equipment. Students will learn about technical drawing, properties and preparation of materials, and manufacturing techniques. Student projects may include a robotic challenge, a design challenge, or a fabrication project involving processes such as machining or welding. Students will develop an awareness of environmental and societal issues related to manufacturing, and will learn about secondary and postsecondary pathways leading to careers in the industry.

You will be given ample notice for upcoming tests. Students who are absent from class should check if notice of any test or assignment dates was given in their absence. 2. Students must provide sufficient notice to the teacher of any legitimate reason that will result in a missed test. 3. If a test is missed for a legitimate reason, verification by parental contact/note must be given to the teacher no later than the day of the student’s return. Arrangements for an alternative evaluation will be made with the teacher. ASSIGNMENTS/PROJECTS 1. The ability to meet deadlines, especially for major assignments and projects, is a life skill that is imperative to succeed in the real world. 2. Failure to hand in assignments on time will receive a 5% reduction the first day after the due date. 3. The student will have a grace period of 2 school days during which assignments can still be submitted with a 10% mark deduction. 4. After this period, a mark of 0 will be applied. (Teacher discretion) Timelines for submission of assignments are established to encourage students to manage their time and to take responsibility for their learning. Timelines are also established to allow teachers to effectively deliver curriculum and manage the evaluation of assignments. It is important, therefore, that students work towards completing ALL assignments and that teachers support them in this process. If there are any questions or concerns about the above information and guidelines, please come see me. I hope you enjoy this course and learn a lot of Manufacturing Technology as well as make new friends. ORDER OF TOPICS (Subject to Change) UNIT – Chapter Title Approx. Number of Hours.
