Its purpose is to provide experiences with industrial/technical materials andprocesses which are commonly found in industrial and consumer products. Ir, this manner it assists in identifying career potentials for students interested in technical careers (engineers, designers, technicians, and craftsmen` and other students interested in improving their consumer knowledge and technological literacy. Suggested activities for both instructors and students are provided in woods, metals, plastics, ceramics_ and composite materials in the knowledge, skill, and attitudinal domains. This guide has been assembled to assist teachers to develop instruc- tional programs at the local level. Information contained within the following pages is only a guide. Teachers should utilize im as a resource in -veloping programs to meet the needs of their individuaL students. It is suggested that teachers at the local level utilize this document incur- riculum planning and interweave its contents with the local constraints formed by student ability, facilities, and administrative support. 0.ontent and activities are suggested throughout the guide which will provide experiences for all students to better understand materials and processes and their utilization by industry and the resultant effects of their use on consumers. This particular guide has been developed in depth. Projects that integrate a variety of materials and processes are recommended; ideas for such projects are given in the sections on resources and supporting media and experiments, activities, and projects. 4 The original content for the guide was specified thrc-_-t.rt competency catalog developed for Materials and Processes Technology. :t r7rc.1.77:dt8 both the teacher and student with several options for developir -,:tared petencies. Each unit (content/concept) contains czmpeten- :ritericn reference measures, topics, a teacher's guide, student's nierfor-r- guides, resources/media, equi7ment, and Supplies. If one were n: yew e rypical sec-4.rce of events in a unit of study, it would 7.:ake on c. as displayed in the following diagram (P gore 1).
