  • 3.00 Credits

    The main thrust of this course is to survey the basic concepts of education, including a study of educational theories, the development of technology and the elements of technological systems. Emphasis is placed on the impacts and interrelationships among technological subsystems and the student's involvement in the actual technology education classroom/laboratory setting. (Same as CTE 182.)
  • 4.00 Credits

    A study of the practices used in the manufacturing industry. Emphasis is placed on the theory and processes used to convert the needs and wants of consumers into distributed products. Technical aspects of materials, processes, equipment, products and occupations relating to the manufacturing industry will be explored. Problem-solving, research and experimentation will be used to establish an enterprise to select, design, test, mass produce, market and service products. Recycling and the impacts on and relationship to societal institutions, the environment and the individual are introduced and explored. Lecture and laboratory. Prerequisite: ITE 101 and 120, upper division standing or instructor approval.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Introduction to the systems and techniques used to transfer and/or process ideas, knowledge and information. Problem-solving, research and experimentation will be used to experience encoding, transmitting, decoding, storing, retrieving and using information. Students will develop technical expertise in the design, construction, analysis and evaluation of the components, devices and subsystems of communication systems. The impacts on and relationship to societal institutions, the environment and the individual are introduced and explored. Lecture and laboratory. Prerequisite: ITD 101 and upper division standing or instructor approval.
  • 3.00 Credits

    A study of systems used to move goods and transport people. Students will research, experiment and solve problems related to the design, development, evaluation and operation of subsystems and components of terrestrial, marine, atmospheric and space transportation as well as the transformation and transportation/transmission of energy to support those transportation systems. Students will select, design, construct, analyze and evaluate solutions to transportation problems. The impacts on and relationship to societal institutions, the environment and the individual are introduced and explored. Prerequisite: upper division standing or advisor approval.
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course provides an overview of diverse technological systems. It explores technological aspects of how technology is designed, and used to meet the wants and needs of individuals and society. The problem-solving and design processes are examined in the context of production, communication and transportation systems. Emphasis is placed on teaching technical content and using the systems approach to develop technical understanding, rudimentary technical skills and problem solving expertise in the technology education classroom/ laboratory setting.
  • 3.00 Credits

    A study of the social, historical and philosophical foundations of technology education and vocational education. Includes critical examination of the influences of the foundations of technology and vocational education on contemporary curricular developments, selection and organization of course content and teaching techniques. Lecture/discussion. Credit may not be received for both CTE 270 and TTE 470. (Same as CTE 570.)
  • 3.00 Credits

    The presentation and application of instructional materials, methods, techniques and devices relevant to teaching technology and vocational education at the orientation, exploration and preparation levels. Students will explore current research on methods of instruction, then plan and execute teaching units for both individual and group instruction, selecting content and instructional strategies based on the goals and objectives appropriate to the content organizers of technology. Activities will include development of lesson plans, organization of materials, and presentation of psychomotor, affective and cognitive instruction as well as establishment of student expectations and a student behavior policy. (Same as CTE 571.)
  • 2.00 Credits

    A study of the methods and procedures used in planning, utilizing, equipping, operating, maintaining and evaluating technology education classroom and laboratory facilities. Exploration of the laboratory management skills and techniques (including safety, inventory, record-keeping, requisitioning equipment and materials, maintenance and budgeting) necessary to develop, maintain and improve an educational environment which accommodates the instructional process in the technology education classroom. Lecture and laboratory.
  • 3.00 Credits

    A study of current trends and issues in curriculum development and instructional media for technology and vocational education. Students will demonstrate an understanding of the curricular considerations unique to the application of other areas of knowledge to technological problem-solving. Research and problem-solving skills will be utilized to adapt instructional media and existing teaching units to both individual and group instruction. Students will link content and instructional strategies based on goals and objectives appropriate to the content organizers of technology. (Same as CTE 574.)
  • 3.00 Credits

    Utilization of the computer as a classroom instructional and management tool. Emphasis on systems terminology, hardware and software maintenance and steps or procedures for converting traditional teacher-lecture materials to computer-managed instruction for technical education. Students will have opportunities to experience and evaluate interactive and noninteractive instructional programs for use in technology-based instruction.
