Pre-service teachers require the skills and knowledge of various materials before entering a workshop. This includes but is not limited to the safe handling of materials, process for manipulating the materials and the logical sequencing of manufacturing processes. This course will focus on metals. This course is designed to familiarise pre-service teachers with a basic design process and its application in junior grades in ITD. This purpose of this course is to provide opportunities for pre-service teachers in ITD to engage with materials, machines and processes that may be encountered when using metals. Pre- service teachers will have opportunity to engage with these materials and processes and consider how they will be integrated into their teaching practice.

This course takes pre-service teachers on a similar design journey that their students will be required to take in ITD. The course will provide pre-service teachers with the knowledge of how to find relevant policies and procedures specific to the machines and materials to be used. The focus for this course will be on developing capacity to engage with a range of materials and provide pre-service teachers with problem solving skills that enables them to continually improve in their use of machinery in a safe manner. Pre-service teachers will be required to attend a school based workshop one morning or afternoon a week (whichever suits the school) during this semester.
