COURSE LEARNING RESOURCES

The effectiveness of teaching in this course depends on making students familiar with the basic manual
skills, such as measuring devices, lathes, welding, metalworking and lathes etc., which will
provide the students with various basic tools skills using in automotive maintenance field.
Teaching methods:
 Exercising and practicing: by training students to do all the practical works using the right instrument
and to identify the type of exercise.
 Online research skills, watching related videos such as you tube, on topics related to course objectives
and recent developments in the field of specific work.
 Learning skills and adaptability: Developed by transferring students and reconfiguring work teams to
enable them to adapt to other individuals from time to time.
