<p>AQA Level 3 Technical Level Engineering: Power Network/Mechatronic/Design ELngeineseringson Plan Unit Number: 2 Unit Name: Mechanical Systems Assessment or Performance Outcome: Internal Assessment</p><p>Tutor Name:</p><p>Group or Cohort Week No. Date Guidance Notes: This is the first lesson in an activity that spans 6 hours, involving the assembly of a small motor. As a precurs</p><p>Length – 1 hour Links to other Assessment or Performance Outcomes: Direct link to P7; supports P11 and P9</p><p>Lesson Objective Activities</p><p>All learners must be able to identify the Starter/Engagement activity: Short film clip of materials to use and the correct sequence of the industrial assembly of motors for a specific operations to assemble a mechanical system named product on a production line, to from a working drawing reinforce the context. (5 minutes)</p><p>Most learners should be able to identify the Group-activity: brainstorm of the methods of tools to use to assemble a mechanical assembling mechanical components used for system this type of product (aligning, precision measuring etc.). (5 minutes) Some learners could be able to select appropriate quality processes to use Teacher-led: overview of what is required to plan production (based on the approach of facilitating assembly by a competent third party): selection and safe use of materials, processes and tools. Presentation of an example production plan for a mechanical pump. (10 minutes)</p><p>Paired work: Distribute the working drawings of the motor. Pairs must identify the materials required, the processes required to assemble the motor and the sequence of assembly, writing these into a provided table. (15 minutes) reference materials may be needed to Individual work: Adding the tools required support some students. (15 minutes) to the production plan. Access to Plenary: peer assessment. Selected learners present individual aspects of their production plan (eg the sequence of operations; or the tools to use with certain steps; or the quality processes etc). Peers identify the good features and any areas for subsequent improvement. (10 minutes) Synoptic Assessment</p><p>Links to the Engineering Design unit due to the use and interpretation of a working drawing</p><p>Supports understanding of engineering production planning, quality control and quality assurance and performing manufacturing processes in the Production and Manufacturing unit Stretch and Challenge activities?</p><p>The sequence of activities in the production plan could be extended to include the subsequent testing of the assembled product.</p><p>The production plan could also include the quality processes and checks to be carried out. Transferable Skills and/or Soft Skills</p><p>This lesson includes both paired and group activities, supporting the development of team working English and Maths</p><p>The production planning could support the Mathematics for Engineers unit, through the specification of common measures such as material and component sizes in the production plan.</p><p>The stretch quality control activity could support the Mathematics for Engineers unit, through specifying the use of statistical methods or graphs for the quality control activities. Assessment</p><p>This activity will be peer assessed in the plenary. The production plan could also be assessed by the teacher, to provide detailed feedback Meaningful employer engagement</p><p>Introductory film clip supports the demonstration of the context. This activity could also be linked to a visit to a local employer, or the product assembled could even be obtained from a local employer.</p>
