What Is Torque? (Screencast)
By Terry Bartelt
Learners read a description of torque and study the factors that cause its magnitude to change.
What is Sigma? Why Six?
By Lee Binz
Learners read about Six Sigma philosophy and methods. The need for high quality levels for today's customers is stressed.
What Is Integrity?
By Barbara Liang
In this interactive object, learners identify the qualities of a person with integrity. They also list the qualities that they themselves possess.
What Is Electricity?
The learner studies how electrons travel from one atom to the next. Examples demonstrate how voltage is created by the use of a battery or through magnetism. A quiz completes the activity.
What Is Current?
By Tim Tewalt, Patrick Hoppe
Learners study an animation that shows how a battery charge reduces over time and when varying resistance values are placed in a series circuit. Ten review questions complete the activity.
What Is Color?
By Steve Utschig
In this animated and interactive lesson, learners examine additive and subtractive color theories.
What Is Attitude?
Learners identify attitudes that they want to examine and perhaps change. They then write an individual action plan to achieve this goal.
Welding Wire Spool Installation Instructions
By Jessie Lloyd
The learner will identify the steps and proper techniques for installing a wire spool on a welding machine.
Weight-Volume Relationships: Void Ratio
By Steve Whitmoyer
Students read how to determine and calculate the void ratio for a given sample of soil or aggregate based on the weight-volume relationship.

This interactive learning object demonstrates how the moisture content is determined for a given sample of soil or aggregate.
Weaving Terms
By cebery
Robotic welding allows welders to create more consistent and higher quality welds. But, it requires you to understand the terminology associated with its programs. Watch this module to review terminology associated with robotic arc welding and the weaving process.
Waveforms of an SCR Circuit
Learners view waveforms at various locations of an SCR circuit controlling the intensity a light bulb. The waveforms are shown when the light is dim, at medium brightness, and at full brightness. A brief quiz completes the activity.
Waveforms of a Triac Circuit
Learners observe the waveforms in a circuit in which a triac controls the brightness of a lamp’s light. A brief quiz completes the activity.
Watt's Law
In this animated object, students examine the concept of wattage dissipation and the three Watt's Law formulas.
Wattmeters
Learners examine the function of the analog wattmeter to measure true power, how it is connected in a circuit, and how the internal components develop a measurement. A brief quiz completes the activity.
Water Leak
By Rosie Bunnow
In this scenario, learners put themselves in the place of a safety director at a local company. They watch video of an injury-causing incident and propose changes to company policies and procedures to try to maintain a safe environment.
