Students will gain an awareness of the role and importance of science and scientific method in daily life and the need to teach these concepts to children from the very beginning of their learning process. This course presents a hands-on approach with methods and materials to teaching science to the young child including the topic areas of environmental concerns, ecology, biology, chemistry, and physical science. Emphasis is placed on the learning level of the pre-school to mid-level child. Students completing this course will receive the following nationally recognized certificates: Project Learning Tree, Project Wet, and Project Wild. Fall Semester.

3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Students must meet the criteria under either (a) or (b) as follows: (a) 19 or above on the ACT Reading Test or 44 or above on the ASSET 55 Reading Test; (b) Completion of READ 0033 Advanced Reading Techniques with a grade of "C" or higher. Covers how economic systems operate, with much emphasis placed on the law of supply and demand, the creation of money, the banking system, fiscal management, and national income. This course is designed to increase awareness of current economic problems and encourage the student to analyze alternative solutions. A student whose placement score requires READ 0013 or READ 0033 is strongly advised against enrollment in this reading intensive course, prior to completion of READ 0013 College Reading Skills and READ 0033 Advanced Reading Techniques.

This course is designed for future educators to facilitate the teacher's knowledge in preparing to share information about computers within the educational classroom setting. Students will learn basic computer skills to be taught when they 56 are in their own classrooms, as well as Excel, or a comparable program for helping with the teacher's grade book.
-
3.00 Credits
The course is designed to provide understanding of the basic concepts of electrical and electronic circuits. Atomic structure, valence electrons, electron current flow, voltage, and power are the prelude to the study of resistance, capacitance, inductance, and electronic circuit behavior. Included is the physical identification, schematic symbols, and understanding of the behavior of common electronic parts. The study of Ohm's Law and capacitive and inductive reactance is implemented.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite or Corequisite: ELT 1103 Basic Electricity/Electronics. The study of magnetism, induction, generation of electricity, the wide array of field devices used by industry and manufacturers, single and three-phase electrical service and their wave-forms are studied both as theory and in practical applications. An intense study of Ohm's Law as it applies to series and parallel circuits is thoroughly studied.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite or Corequisite: ELT 1103 Basic Electricity/Electronics. An industrial oriented course providing hands-on wiring of single and threephase motors and various control circuits. Stop-start-run, jog, reduced voltage starting, magnetic brake, plugging, sequential-start, and other control circuits are examined and tested. The ability to produce professional quality schematic diagrams of all control systems is required, as is the ability to trouble-shoot the systems built in the lab.
-
6.00 Credits
Prerequisite or Corequisite: ELT 1103 Basic Electricity/Electronics. This is a course designed to teach the student correct industrial and residential wiring practices as set forth in the current edition of the National Electrical Code. The first two weeks of this course are spent solely on electrical safety practices. Service entrance requirements, breaker box wiring, proper grounding, feeder and branch circuit requirements, over current protection, device installation, conduit fill and bending, and ampacities of all conductors are the high points of this universally useful course. Common wiring practices and accepted procedures are included.
