1 Angelina College Technology and Workforce Division WLDG 2406 INTERMEDIATE PIPE WELDING General Syllabus Date approved or revised I. COURSE DESCRIPTION: (as stated in the bulletin, including necessary pre-requisite courses, credit hours) Welding Intermediate Pipe Welding. Fours hours credit. A comprehensive course on the welding of pipe using the shielded metal arc welding(smaw)process. Position of welds will be 3G, 4G, 5G, and 6G using various electrodes. Topics covered include electrode selection, equipment setup, and safe shop practices. Course Learning Outcomes: The student will describe equipment and required pipe preparation. The student will perform 3G, 4G,5G,and 6G welds using various electrodes. Two lecture and four laboratory hours each week. Lab fee. INTENDED AUDIENCE: Sophomore course INSTRUCTOR Name: Office Location: Office Hours: Phone: Address: II. INTENDED STUDENT OUTCOMES: A. Core Competencies (Basic Intellectual Competencies) 1. Reading: Reading at the college level means the ability to analyze and interpret a variety of printed materials books, articles, and documents. A core curriculum should offer students the opportunity to master both general methods of analyzing printed materials and specific methods for analyzing the subject matter of individual disciplines. 2. Writing: Competency in writing is the ability to produce clear, correct, and coherent prose adapted to purpose, occasion, and audience. Although correct grammar, spelling, and punctuation are each a sine qua non in any composition, they do not automatically ensure that the composition itself makes sense or that the writer has much of anything to say. Students need to be familiar with the writing process including how to discover a topic and how to develop and organize it, how to phrase it effectively for their audience. These abilities can be acquired only through practice and reflection. 3. Speaking: Competence in speaking is the ability to communicate orally in clear, coherent, and persuasive language appropriate to purpose, occasion, and audience. Developing this competency includes acquiring poise and developing control of the language through experience in making presentations to small groups, to large groups, and through the media. 4. Listening: Listening at the college level means the ability to analyze and interpret various forms of spoken communication. 5. Critical Thinking: Angelina College defines critical thinking as the dynamic process of questioning preconceptions and biases through the gathering and evaluation of data to reach new conclusions that consider realistic implications and consequences. 6. Computer Literacy: Computer literacy at the college level means the ability to use computer-based technology in communicating, solving problems, and acquiring information. Core-educated students should have an understanding of the limits, problems, and possibilities associated with the use of technology, and should have the tools necessary to evaluate and learn new technologies as they become available.
