"AUTO MECHANICS" - TTJ 2A - Grade 10Auto Mechanics is designed to equip students with the fundamental knowledge of various methods of transportation systems. A focus will be put upon personal transportation, in particular the systems involved with automobile ignition, fuel, and cooling which will be studied with reference to function, location and operation. Students should acquire competence in most essential shop and safety procedures. This is an excellent introductory course for those wishing to pursue further studies in the transportation industry. "AUTO MECHANICS" - TTJ 3A - Grade 11 Auto mechanics is designed for the students who wish to study the purpose, construction and operation of the major units of the power plants, transmission and running gear of the automobile. Minor repairs and adjustments of engine, fuel, ignition, cooling and lubrication systems are stressed as well as elementary skills in the use of hand tools. Theory is directly related to project-driven practical work. The integration of fundamental physics principles, such as intertia, momentum, flotation, and energy in its various forms becomes meaningful. Recommended Prep. TTJ 2A "AUTO OWNERSHIP" - TTJ 3A4 - Grade 11 Auto Ownership is a general interest Auto Owners course designed for both female and male students who currently own an automobile or will have one in the near future. Providing information and hands-on experience on aspects of a vehicle, which every potential owner should know will be the main objective of the course. Areas of study will include: new and used vehicle inspections, strategies and procedures for purchasing a vehicle, what you need to know about car insurance, assessing repair estimates and road side repairs. Practical work periods will provide opportunities for learners to gain experience and develop confidence in performing various service and maintenance requirements. Lessons will focus on principles behind key areas of engine, driveline, brake and suspension systems in order that potential owners have sufficient knowledge to make intelligent decisions about their vehicle. "AUTO MECHANICS" - TTJ 4A - Grade 12 Auto mechanics provides greater emphasis on computerized fuel, engine, and emission control. Minor repairs and adjustments required for general service and maintenance will be covered in the course. A combination of theory and practical projects and workstations will expose students to a wide range of skills required to complete this course successfully. Testing and repair of single and multi-cylinder engines, clutches, automatic and standard transmissions, drive shafts, and rear axles are also covered. Recommended Prep. TTJ 3A Construction Technology - Back to Top 
"WOODWORK" - TCJ 2G - Grade 10Construction Technology emphasizes architectural design, building construction and woodworking with instruction and projects focused on the following: computer assisted design (CAD), architectural design, model building, building construction, carpentry, and electricity. This is an introductory project-oriented course. Woodworking will involve the use of both hand and machine tools to construct projects such as models light framing construction, and cabinet making. Manufacturing Technology - Back to Top 
"MACHINE SHOP" - TMJ 2G - Grade 10Machine shop is an integrated computer/power machine course designed to allow students to explore the many areas in Manufacturing Technology. These include: an overview of the manufacturing industry, careers in manufacturing environmental concerns, product design including computer assisted drafting (CAD), machining and shaping of metal, plastics or wood using both computer assisted and conventional machines such as the drill press, bandsaw, lathe, mill, and plastic forming bench. Introduction to CNC (Computer numerical control) program writing, precision measuring, pneumatics, hydraulics and robotics may be included. By the end of the course students will have acquired an overview of careers, environmental concerns, designing, manufacturing and testing projects using both computer and conventional machining methods. Teamwork will be stressed through team-oriented projects. The focus is on high-tech environmentally concerned manufacturing for the future. "MACHINE SHOP" - TMJ 3G - Grade 11 Machine shop builds on, refines and expands the basic concepts, manufacturing skills and knowledge that were acquired in TMJ 2G enabling the students to meet the challenges of more complex, high technology projects. The main areas of focus will be: manufacturing processes, product design, blueprint reading, computer assisted drafting (CAD), solid modeling, computer assisted manufacturing (CAM), and may include program writing for the computer numerical control (CNC) machines, pneumatics, hydraulics, robotics, problem solving, and an introduction to welding equipment and processes. Emphasis will be placed on teamwork and computer-integrated manufacturing. Students will be responsible for the design, manufacture and testing of their projects as well as environmental concerns and written communication reports. Recommended prep: TMJ 2G. "MACHINE SHOP" - TMJ 4G - Grade 12 Machine shop provides students with the opportunity to put the skills and knowledge acquired in TMJ 3G into practice. Students will be given the opportunity to become part of a design/manufacture team. The main goal of each team will be to design, manufacture and market an acceptable product utilizing the expertise, equipment and facilities available in the school. The following areas will be emphasized: product designing, manufacturing processes using computer-assisted designing (CAD) and computer-assisted manufacturing (CAM), environmental concerns, and communication through report writing. Recommended prep: TMJ 3G. Staff List - Back to Top
