Students can select and work on a range of skills that will be needed for their working life.  The following Skill Activities form part of the available portfolio – for assessment purposes students need submit only THREE Activities but are encouraged to do as many as possible to broaden their skills and widen their networks.  Currently we have five Skill Activities on offer

  1. The construction site visit activity & report
  2. The external exhibition visit & report
  3. The AutoCAD On-line training & drawing activity (Linkedin Learning)
  4. The Excel calculation spreadsheet.
  5. The Mentee report (working with L6 final year students as a Mentor)
  6. Manufacturing visit to Mini factory.

Note that:

  • For students on BEng (hons)/MEng courses the AutoCAD activity is COMPULSORY.
  • For students on all BSc (hons) courses the EXCEL activity is COMPULSORY
  • All Activities are equally weighted.

Student need to plan and manage their time to meet all the required deadline whereby feedback can be provided.  This process of managing your work is a key part of Mental Wealth and needs to be documented in your Reflective Logs and will also be assessed as part of your Self-Reflective Diary.  Students who demonstrate their ability to participate in other activities will receive credit through their Reflective Log and Final Reflective Report parts of the portfolio.

EG4019 Manufacturing Visit –

Question Prompts & Log

 

Real automobiles do not get manufactured on paper! Seeing productions take place in the realm of dirt, materials, labour, and equipment, is an important part of learning about the making of cars. The ability to knowledgeably observe work in progress is also an important skill for the design, engineering or manufacturing professional.

Over the course of this semester you will be able to visit several sites to observe work in progress, record your observations, and where necessary, follow up later with analysis of what you have seen. You may record details during a single site visit or span a series of regular visits to a site over the course of the Semester.

The production of this ‘Site Diary Log’ will be a culmination of both the University organised visits and visits that you will arrange by yourself or in groups of two or three.

Take plenty of images and ask questions about what you see and hear.

Observations should be made in the form of notes, and annotated sketches or photographs. In cases where follow-up comments or research are needed, provide concise, clear explanations, and note your sources of information. You may use the form on the following pages as a template for recording your observations and follow-up notes. During each visit, try to answer as many of the following questions as possible:

  Topics Descriptions / Facts Questions / Notes
1 Types of facilities available for car production? Machinery/laboratory/research/design software.  

 

 

2 What are the main technologies used in car production?  

 

3 What are the orderly steps of car production?  

 

4 What are the main methods of construction seen or equipment used on the visit?  

 

5 Who did you meet during the visit?  What was their role?  Their profession?  

 

 

6 What were their main challenges faced in their role?  What do they enjoy about their work?  

 

 

7 How is care for workers demonstrated, e.g. health & safety and general tidiness?  
8 Other Notes – Remember to take and include at least FOUR interesting photos.
