COURSE DESCRIPTION; This course of study consists of an introduction to the
automotive industry including automotive history, safety practices, shop equipment and
tools, vehicle subsystems, service publications, fasteners, professional responsibilities,
and automotive maintenance.
COURSE OBJECTIVES
The focus of this course is; the automotive repair technician has a monumental
challenge before him or her to keep abreast of the constantly changing technical advances
in the automotive industry. The technician has to comprehend information on the new HiTech electrical systems, the ever- changing mechanical technology and improved
materials, which make up a modern day vehicle. The automotive technician has to
determine what component part or parts are performing incorrectly by using meters,
gauges, and computer test equipment. The technician will need to be able to repair the
customer’s vehicle as quickly as possible. Increased vehicle sales caused by the
increasing population means increased use of automobiles. Automotive repair technicians
are very desirable employees in the current and future workplace. They command high
salaries for their expertise of diagnosis and repair of the automobile.
Upon completion of this course, the student will:
STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES:

authorized by the person giving the test.
2. Collaborating with another student during a test without authority.
3. Knowingly using, buying, selling, stealing, transporting, or soliciting in whole
or Part the contents of an un-administered test.

Plagiarism means the appropriation of another’s work and the unacknowledged
incorporation of that work in one’s own work for credit.
Collusion means the unauthorized collaboration with another person in
preparing written work offered for credit.
Students guilty of academic dishonesty can be given a grade of F or 0 for the
particular test or assignment involved. In extreme cases or for repeated
violations, guilty students can be assigned a failing grade in a course or
recommended for probation or dismissal from the College System (Faculty
Handbook P.68) (Student Handbook P.35)

FINAL EXAMINATION
The final examination counts as 20% of the final average for AUMT 1305. Given
at 5:15 PM on the last Wednesday of class (8th week) of this course.
WEEKLY TEST
Every MONDAY unless there is a holiday interruption the course weekly test will
be given. Absence on day of test will be 10% off score of each test. Test time is
for each test is 5:15 PM. Time limit is 60 minutes per test. Grade average for
Weekly Tests are 40% of the final grade. You are required to have (at least 7)
SCANTRONS; Form No 882. Purchase these from Book Store, Northline Mall
Camper, Northeast College.
Professionalism / Attendance
It is important that students attend class regularly in order to be competent in
the course material. Professionalism is all about work habits and ethical
practices. A tardy or leaving class early will count as 3 points off
professionalism attendance; an absence will count off 10 points per
occurrence. Leaving class early or being tardy three times counts as an
absence. Follow directions, be where you are supposed to be and stay the
amount of time you are required to stay. Failure to stay the complete day
will result in a zero for any unannounced pop quizzes and points off of the
professionalism attendance grade. Currently the percentage breakdown for
professionalism is:
1. Unannounced “pop” quizzes 33% (no make-up)
2. Attendance 33% (For this percentage all students will start with 100 pts.
An absence or tardy will result in point deduction
3. Natef task sheets –33%-Sheets due on Monday of the 8th week.
Replacement of a lost Natef task packet will result in a 10 point deduction
from the professionalism grade average.
The above breakdown for professionalism will determine 20% of your overall grade.
DAILY QUIZZIES
Unannounced “Pop” quizzes may be given after or during each lecture or
shop/lab. Daily Pop Quizzes count as 33% of the 20% Professionalism grade.
No make-up for unannounced pop quizzes. Failure to take quiz results in a grade
of zero for that quiz.
10
MyAutomotiveLab Assignments:
It is the responsibility of the student “to make sure that his/her assignments are
completed on time. Assignments completed late will be 10% off score each day
late. MyAutomotiveLab assignments count as 20% of the final grade.
LAB REQUIREMENT / TOOL POLICY
Fourth week of course, on Monday, each student must have at least 95% of
1305 tools listed on the tool list, in order to perform any shop tasks. Students that
do not have their tools and safety glasses cannot work or be in shop. The only
exception to this rule is scholarship students who receive tools at the end
of the program.
SAFETY GLASSES
All A.T.T.C. students must wear OSHA approved safety glasses or safety
goggles any time they in the shop, are working in shop. Students must have
safety glasses by the second day of class. Students who do not purchase
safety glasses will not be allowed to do any lab or shop activities and therefore
will receive a grade of 0 for their daily lab grade.
Attendance/Participation. Attendance counts as 33% of the professionalism
grade average- One absence = -10; One tardy= -3. With respect to the
aforementioned 33% attendance grade each student will start with 100 pts.
SHOP ACTIVITIES:
The shop grade is based on a willingness to participate in the shop projects,
shop clean up, have all tools required of AUMT 1305, attendance and completion
of projects. Having the correct tools will count as a unannounced quiz grade of
100. As part of the professionalism grade uannounced quizzes, natef task
sheets and attendance will count for 20% of the total grade.
