Automotive Technology Set
Reminiscent of Alpha Omega Publication's Lifepacs, this set will give you a basic understanding of your vehicle. It includes five 50+ page books (or units) divided into chapters, which are subdivided into smaller sections. Unit 1 covers an introduction to automotive technology (how your engine works), charging system, and ignition. Unit 2 covers automatic transmission, oil pump, and brakes. Unit 3 discusses wheel alignment, hybrid power systems, and dashboard gauges and air condition, Unit 4 introduces cooling, fuel and starting systems, emission control, battery, diagnostics, under hood checks, oil changes, and washing. Unit 5 covers dead batteries, investigating fluids, alignment, balance, and tire rotation, tune ups, and jumping your car. Each section contains a quiz to test your retention, and end of chapter and unit quizzes are also included. A separate score key is also included to easily check your student's work. This set seems more informational, so you can discuss problems with your mechanic and understand how things work, rather than a how-to manual that would help you do much maintenance/repair yourself. ~ Megan
We have received many customer requests for Starline Press Curriculum and after taking time to review it is easy to see why! Self-directed with character quality traits infused, this independent learning curriculum allows students to learn at their own pace (which may vary subject to subject) while maintaining alignment to California state standards. Please see publisher website for CA state standards correlation. Both objective and subjective assessment methods are used to ensure mastery of material. Challenging activities are included in each unit to help develop critical thinking skills. Each subject area is complete and easy to use. Each grade level subject contains 10-12 units (booklets) per year, with units averaging 24-60 pgs each.
Consumable worktexts are colorfully illustrated soft covers, although newer printings are more like booklets and do not have the perfect binding and glossy covers. Available only in complete sets which include answer and test keys. Each unit focuses on one character quality, for example: being flexible, ambitious, creative, vigilant, or self-controlled. ~ Deanne
