DIFFERENT BACKGROUND/SETTING
TALKING ABOUT STAGES: There are 4 stages in Welding (SWAP TO IMAGE OF THE 4 STAGES) Students will start at stage 1 which includes “introduction to welding.” After that, stage 2 which includes “Welding I” and “Introduction to Film Interpretation of Weldments”. Then comes stage 3 which includes Welding II and finally stage 4 which has advanced classes such as “Practicum in Manufacturing”, “Practicum in Entrepreneurship”, and “Career preparation I”
Each stage will be a prerequisite for the next stage asach stage will be a continuation of what was learned in the previous stage.
The different stages in welding provide students with a comprehensive and progressive learning experience. Starting at stage 1, students are introduced to the basics of welding. They learn about the different types of welding processes, safety precautions, equipment usage, and fundamental welding techniques.
Moving on to stage 2, students delve deeper into the art of welding. They learn more advanced welding techniques and gain hands-on experience in creating weldments. Additionally, they are introduced to film interpretation of weldments, which allows them to understand and analyze welding procedures through visual representations.
In stage 3, students further refine their skills and knowledge in welding. They focus on more complex welding techniques and enhance their problem-solving abilities in real-life welding scenarios. This stage provides them with the necessary skills to handle various welding tasks in industries such as construction, manufacturing, and automotive.
Finally, in stage 4, students have the opportunity to take advanced classes that align with their career goals in welding. These classes include "Practicum in Manufacturing," where students have the chance to apply their skills in a manufacturing setting, "Practicum in Entrepreneurship," which prepares students to start their own welding businesses, and "Career preparation I," which assists students with job placement and professional development.
It is important to note that each stage acts as a prerequisite for the next, ensuring that students have a solid foundation before progressing to more advanced topics and techniques. This progressive learning approach allows students to build upon their previous knowledge and skills, ultimately making them well-rounded and competent welders.
