SHS2 Applied Technology · Semester 1 Week 13: Welding Technology

Lesson notes

Learning Objectives

Indicator: 2.2.2.LI.5 - Generate and outline the sequence of operations involved in the making of artefacts.

By the end of the lesson, learners can:

List at least five operations in the correct order for making a sheet metal artefact, from design to finishing.
Generate a logical sequence of operations for a given sheet metal product, justifying the order of each step.
Outline a step-by-step production plan for a chosen artefact, including the tools and equipment needed at each stage.
Evaluate an existing sequence of operations and identify errors or improvements, explaining their reasoning.
Work collaboratively in mixed-ability groups to research sequences of operations and present a coherent production plan for a real-life artefact.
