Subjects
This course provides year 11 students the foundation skills required in Automotive and Mechanical Technologies 2. Students will also gain the Basic Road Safety 1 Certificate.
Automotive and Mechanical Technologies focuses on understanding how and why mechanical vehicles, plant and equipment work.Through practical activities learners use specialist tools and equipment to identify mechanical faults and complete system maintenance, repairs and adjustments.
This course provides year 11 students the foundation skills required in Certificate II in Construction Pathways. Students will study Workshop Techniques and VET units that include handling carpentry materials, the White Card (CPCCWHS1001) and First Aid (HLTAID003).
Design and Production develops design thinking, systems thinking and project implementation skills which typify contemporary design practice. A range of technological skills are developed through the use of tools and equipment to transform materials to meet a need in areas such as furniture and homewares, clothing and fashion and tools and devices. At Hellyer, students can specialise in Wood, Metals or Textiles.
Computer Graphics and Design - Foundation develops skills in using computer graphic techniques and processes. A design process is used to create digital content including 2D and 3D digital graphics and animation.
Computer Graphics and Design focuses on contemporary digital technologies in design and computer graphics by developing skills in the use of processes and systems of 3D modelling. Design principles, processes and practice are applied to create digital visual content. A design process is used to plan, undertake and evaluate a variety of design projects, techniques and complete a range of design briefs and an externally assessed project.
Engineering Design introduces learners to engineering principles and systems through an integrated Science, Technologies, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) inquiry. Students become aware of factors that influence innovation and enterprise and the success and failure of a product. Students will have the opportunity to research and appraise existing ideas, products, processes and solutions to problems. They will communicate their ideas within the parameters and requirements of engineering based tasks whilst gaining and applying knowledge of industry standards of design, manufacture and safety.
This course introduces learners to skills and knowledge in: welding, metal fabrication, machining and fitting, to use engineering tools and equipment to produce or modify objects, how to stay safe and healthy in the workplace, the skills employers value in young workers. In a typical lesson you may: use lathes and mills, weld with ARC, MIG and TIG, practice achieving accuracy and a high standard of workmanship to complete a major project and visit workplaces. This course in delivered at Burnie High School.
Housing and Design develops architectural skills to respond to design briefs for indoor and outdoor spaces. A design process is used to develop appropriate responses by researching design precedents and the needs of users and analysing the context and site. Design development and final drawings are communicated using freehand sketching and scale drawing skills.
This VET program focuses on developing skills required for working in the automotive industry sector. Students learn about work health and safety, automotive workshop practices, mechanical and electrical fundamentals and use of tools and equipment.
This VET program focuses on developing skills required for working in the construction and allied trades industry sector. Students learn about work health and safety, construction practices and use of tools and equipment.
This course offers student the skills required to gain an apprenticeship in electrotechnology (electrical, refrigeration, electronics and telecommunications).
Object Design will focus on the making of bespoke functional items with a strong design emphasis. Students will attend a symposium that includes designer talks, technical demonstrations and an introduction to their project brief. Access to UTAS workshops will be organised through each college, with students and staff able to use specialist facilities by negotiation. Students will be required to produce a major design piece for assessment, backed up by a project journal and drawing, model or project plans. Completed student works will be presented at a group exhibition, which will also form the basis of the student assessment process.
