Level 2 BTEC Engineering - Unit 1: The Engineered World - Blended Wing Bodies.

(0)
A set of resources including four worksheets and a presentation that aims teach students about blended wing bodies used in the aerospace engineering sector. The bell work is a spot the difference task that aims to encourage students to compare and contrast traditional aircraft with aircraft that have blended wing bodies. This moves into a discussion about their advantages and disadvantages. From this point students should be able to answer all of the questions in the worksheets. Types of questions include multiple choice questions, learning of key terms, and given statements where students have to justify the answers. The final task is a long answer question, ideal as an extension for more able students, or a homework for all. Please look at my other free resources if you are curious about my teaching style and want to see what's on offer before you commit to buy! Free for NQT's, just get in touch.

This resources is an adaptable lesson PowerPoint including worksheets covering the advantages and disadvantages of Titanium, Tungsten, Superalloys, Modern high performance ceramics, Kevlar and Optical Fibres. In the bell task students can annotate the first slide in pairs or teams to establish prior knowledge. The main task is a series of six fact slides, one for each material. I print and place these on the tables and then students can move around the room to each table copying down the facts. However, you could a copy of each material slide to a table and use KAGAN strategies (5 minutes - 10 minutes per slide to copy each and swap) if they are a lively bunch or you want them to remain seated. Discussions for a plenary or save for your next starter. If you are unsure there are some free Unit 1 resources for other topics available so that you see my resources in more detail before committing to buy! Free for NQT's, just get in touch.

This is a 16 page A4 pack (pdf) that enables students to provide photographic evidence for Unit 7: Machining Techniques, learning Aim A and compliments the online assignment brief provided by Edexcel. Students should look to take photos where their face is visible, if they do not, you or one of their peer's, should write a comment such as "I witnessed students' name* completing this task" adding a signature to verify the evidence. *Beta tested! Corrections made! If you downloaded an incorrect version get in touch and I'll email you the latest correct version. ** Dec 2015 - Further improvements to student requirements. When did you select it? Why did you select it? What makes it useful? To break up the tasks more clearly.
