Courses

This course focuses on the development stages of selected motor patterns fundamental to educational games, gymnastics, and dance. Students develop and practice the skill theme approach to teaching fundamental movement patterns to elementary and middle school students. Students also develop observation and analysis skills for diagnosing children's motor patterns.

An introduction to the psychological theories and principles applied to the classroom. The course will include aspects of learning, motivation, classroom management, and assessment. Emphasis will be placed on developmentally designed instruction for all students.

This course introduces line and low voltage switching circuits, manual and automatic controls and devices, and circuits. Emphasis will be placed on switching circuits, manual and automatic controls and devices, line and low voltage switching circuits, and operation, application and ladder diagrams. Topics include ladder and wire diagrams, switching circuits, manual controls and devices, automatic controls and devices, and application and operation of controllers and controls.

Electrical Technology This course introduces electrical symbols and their use in construction blueprints, electrical schematics, and diagrams. Topics include electrical symbols, component identification, print reading and scales and measurement.

This course introduces electrical theory and principles used in residential, commercial, and industrial wiring applications. Emphasis is placed in electron theory, DC and AC circuits, Ohm’s law, test equipment, transformers, and electrical power systems. Topics include electricity production, electrical formulas, test equipment, transformer fundamentals, and fundamentals of AC and DC circuits.

This course is designed to give students the opportunity to engage in a lab project or an off-site internship for the purpose of refining the skills necessary for gainful employment. The student is expected to have completed all program requirements to this point, and to be able to demonstrate efficiency in all skills mastered.

Electrostatic fields and potentials, conductors, dielectrics, magnetic fields, magnetic materials, electromagnetic induction, and Maxwell's equations. (At the level of Griffiths.)

This course introduces the fundamental theories and applications of single-phase motors. Topics include motor theory/operating principles, motor terminology, motor identification, NEMA standards, motor efficiencies, preventive maintenance, troubleshooting/failure analysis, and NEC requirements.

Provides an introduction to clinical practice in the setting of hospitals, clinics, and medical offices. Students must demonstrate regard for the dignity, rights, and privacy of each patient. They must also abide by the policies and procedures of each clinical setting. Students will be able to learn by doing electrocardiography techniques and record keeping. Emphasis is placed on the application of knowledge and skills gained in the classroom.

This course introduces the conduction process in semiconductor materials and devices. Topics include semiconductor physics; diodes; basic diode circuits and applications; biasing, stability and graphical analysis of bipolar junction transistors and field effect transistors; introduction to silicon-controlled rectifiers; device curve characteristics; and related devices with selected applications.
