Production welding processes II syllabus
CHENEY HIGH SCHOOL
MR. SUTTER
This class will expand on concepts and skills learned in welding I byuse of welding equipment. More emphasis will be put on the application of welding as it relates to industry, code welding, welding symbol identification/use, and AWS (American Welding Society) certification. Students will be graded on project development, cost analysis, and quality project completion. Test plates will be covered with the goal that upon completion of this class a student will be able to prepare and weld up a 3/8” test plate for consideration in AWS certification.
*Any Industrial Technology bills received from this class must be paid within one week of receiving the bill.
CLASSROOM RULES
1)Follow all of the rules and directions the first time they are given.
2)Come to class prepared (pen/pencil, textbook, and notebook) on a daily basis. Always be ready to do book work.

4)No horseplay, running, throwing things, yelling, misbehavior, food/eating, etc. while in the welding/metal lab.
5)Clean up your own mess and put the tools away, don’t expect someone else to clean up after you
6)Use class time to work on projects. Don’t waste the shop time that is given to you.
EXPECTATIONS
Follow all of the school, classroom and welding lab rules.
When classroom/shop activities are assigned, utilize time given to complete the work assigned. Wasting time will result in a severe decrease of your daily grade.
I expect nothing but your best, so don’t let me downDo your best in all that you do in this class.
Respect the property of the school and that of other students. Damaging, stealing and/or defacing school or student property will NOT be tolerated and are grounds for immediate (possibly permanent) removal from this class - consequences in accordance with Cheney’s School Discipline System (See student handbook)
CONSEQUENCES
1st Infraction = verbal warning - documented
2nd Infraction = discipline - contacting parents
3rd or more Infraction = removal from class – using handbook step system.
Safety violations and deliberate/gross misconduct will result in immediate removal from class.
DRESS
Because of the environment in which this Industrial Technology class is held, Cheney School District advises that students in this class wear clothing that is appropriate for the setting.
In this class it is recommended that over shirts to cover up the student’s school clothes be used to avoid contact with:flying sparks, welding fumes, UV light radiation and finish material.
Cheney School District will not be responsible for clothing that becomes dirty and/or damaged from classroom/shop activities. Lockers are provided in the Industrial Technology Department for students to place clothes that would cover school clothes.
No sandals, open-toed shoes or slipperswill be allowed to be worn in the labs, if you do not bring the correct shoes a zero given for the day and you will not be allowed in the lab. Second offense will warrant a detention and a zero for the day.
GRADES
Quarter Grades - Points will be assigned to each graded activity and then placed into the categories below.
60% Shop grade* (Note: Shop grade is 20 pts./day-attendance, being prepared, having necessary clothes/gear,following safety rules, quantity and quality of work.)
30% Assignments ( weekly work log, bookwork, worksheets)
10% Quizzes / Tests
*Students will receive a zero for shop points for any absence. The only exception is ifthe absence is due to a conflict with the home/school schedule. Absence due to illness will need to be made up before or after school.
Semester Grade – Grades will be calculated using the following system:
45% Quarter 45% Quarter 10% Semester Exam
Assignments – Complete assignments using blue/black pen or pencil, NO light colored or glitter pens. Be sure to include your name, date and page number on the top right corner of the page or on appropriate name line of any assignment turned in for a grade. Example:
STUDENT NAME
CLASS
DATE DUE
PAGE OR ASSIGNMENT DESCRIPTION
Late Assignments – Late assignments will be graded as follows:
1 day late = 50% of earned grade
2 or more days late = 0% of earned grade
*A day is classified as the next actual class day for the class. For example:
The assignment is due on a Monday; it is one day late on Wednesday and two days late on Friday of the same week.
Scale – The following is the percent to letter grade scale used for this class:
100 - 90% = A / 89 - 80% = B / 79-70% = C / 69 - 60% = D / 59 – 00% = FProjects-Welding II students: In addition to continued learning of machine setup, continued use of common weld joints, blueprint terminology and shop safety; During the course of this year students are required to have a long term project or multiple projects.
*The training students receive in the shop constitutes the bulk of the student’s grade, if the any student is found irresponsibly using class time ie. Sitting on computers playing games, removal from the class is possible.
