New Resources for Technology Teachers New Resources for Technology Teachers Many teachers of technology, particularly those new to the subject believe that 'megadoses' of new hi-tech hardware and software are essential if the National Curriculum is to be delivered. They are encouraged to think so by a legion of enthusiastic suppliers. But they are only partially correct. Much of the technology curriculum, particularly in the crucial but neglected Business Studies area, is about understanding the systems that control everyday life. Fortunately there is a rapidly growing range of new equipment that can help and much of it is free to teachers. Particularly interesting is What is a Barcode? an information pack for classroom projects produced by the Article Number Association. Consisting of lesson notes, diagrams, teachers' notes and technical notes, it provides the basis for a wide spectrum of work ranging from Key Stage 1 shopping projects to Key Stage 4 marketing studies - involving a range of understandings in topics such as shopping Above: A Cessna 150 two-seat light the centuries old traditional drawing behaviour, cost and quality control aircraft being made ready at Flightlab. instruments. through to algorithmic mathematics, and The other product is Circlemaster which yet building on the everyday experience requirements as the showrooms are not eliminates the traditional compass with of the pupils. planned as a 'resource' for schools. all its hazards.

Read Full License Page 1/13 Abstract Background: Mechanical failure, power shortage, and unexpected contamination of oscillating saw occasionally happened in actualizing femoral neck osteotomy during total hip arthroplasty, while no appropriate alternative solution be available presently. This study aimed to introduce a novel osteotomy instrumentation (fretsaw, jig, cable passer hook) as a substitute tool while oscillating saw was unavailable in THA. Methods: This study included 40 patients (40 hips) who underwent femoral neck osteotomy during primary THA using the new osteotomy instrumentation (n=20) and oscillating saw (n=20). Clinical data and intraoperative ndings of all patients were evaluated. Results: The mean osteotomy time was 22.3 ± 3.1 s (range, 17–30 s) and 29.4 ± 3.7 s (range, 25–39 s) in the oscillating saw group and the new osteotomy instrumentation group, respectively (P<0.001).

    safety 1 When you start working with tools, it’s important to make sure you do so in a safe manner. And always under supervision of an adult! 1 work area 1. Keep your work area clean and tidy. Make sure you have enough light, so you can see what you’re doing. 2. Make sure you work on a firm surface. The table you use should have a good height, so that you can work in a good position. tools 1. Tools are not toys. Use them carefully, so that you don’t injure yourself. Use them only for the purpose for which they were intended. 2. Always read first how a tool is supposed to be used, and always take note of the yellow triangles: Ask for help if you need it. Often not everything goes precisely as you’d like it to right away. That’s completely normal. The more often you’ve used a tool, the better you’ll be able to use it. © EDGE 2009 -1- 1 safety By observing certain safety measures, you can help ensure that nothing goes wrong What can you yourself do? When you start working with your tools, make 1. sure you’re calm, so that you can concentrate properly. 2. Think in advance about what tools you’ll be needing and how you’re going to start. 3.

No part of this publication may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means, electronic or mechanical, including photocopy, recording or any information storage and retrieval system. 2 | Tuke Saw™ System | Operating Manual Section 1 | 1 Introduction The Tuke Saw™ air-powered hand unit drives the blade or brush through a circular motion at frequencies of up to 20,000 cycles per minute. The circular motion of only 1.5mm vibrates soft tissues without cutting them. Introduction This safety feature allows the surgeon to guide the blade accurately by hand to delicate locations normally inaccessible to conventional power tools, or where saws are not normally used; for example, the posterior tibia cortex in TKR, or highly controlled mortice cutting for ankle replacement or arthrodesis. During resection the unique tooth-shape along with the circular motion promotes bone chip removal, making the cutting action clean and efficient. Blades with teeth on all sides will advance to penetrate a cut on the tip or on either side. The Tuke Saw™ System features the range of blades and brushes illustrated on page 14 of this brochure. These single-use attachments make the system extremely versatile especially in the field of orthopaedic surgery where shaping and shaving are often required.
