NCEA Level 3 Materials Technology: Building

13MTB
Course Description

Teacher in Charge: S. Stephen.

Recommended Prior Learning

Prior learning must include familiarity with a range of workshop power tools and hand tools and a willingness to develop design and planning skills.

This class is a substantial step up from 12 MTB. Students will have to develop their own design, plan and action the plan to produce a major practical project. This is a student directed project and so there is a large component of design required as well as ongoing reflection of their practice. Students will also learn how to operate fixed machinery including the table saw and drop saw.
