The learner will identify the types of motion instructions used for programming a robot.

In this animated object, learners examine three data compare instructions used by programmable logic controllers (PLCs). A practical application to show how these instructions are used in an industrial setting is provided.

The learner will understand the importance of following instructions.

In this screencast, you'll observe two vehicles moving across the screen at different rates then describe the motion. Additionally, you'll select the corresponding graphs of distance vs. time, velocity vs. time, and acceleration vs. time for each vehicle.

The learner views several animations to study Newton's First Law of Motion, also known as "The Law of Inertia."

The learner will gain an understanding of how a robot uses welding instructions to perform tasks. This learning activity includes video.

In this learning activity you'll apply directions to follow when writing clear "how-to" instructions.

The learner will distinguish effective from ineffective approaches to writing instructions.

In this animated object, learners use an algebraic formula to solve the following problem: An airplane travels a certain distance with the wind in the same amount of time that it takes to travel a shorter distance against the wind. Given a constant wind speed, what is the speed of the plane without a wind?

In this learning activity you'll examine force, mass, and acceleration to understand this "Law of Acceleration."

In this animated object, learners examine the operation of up-counters and down-counters for a programmable controller. A brief quiz completes the activity.

Learners examine the animated Timer-On Delay instruction and the Timer-Off Delay instruction of a PLC timer. A brief quiz completes the activity.

The learner will identify the steps and proper techniques for installing a wire spool on a welding machine.

The student watches a car move through a city and writes directions based on the car's route.

In this animated and interactive object, learners use an algebraic formula to solve a problem involving distance, rate, and time.

The learner will learn the programming steps that are used to create circular motions with robots.

In this learning activity you'll examine Newton's Third Law: for every action, there is an equal but opposite reaction.

In this animated object, learners examine automated manufacturing systems classified as motion control, batch process control, and continuous process control.

Learners read work instructions and view a drawing for turning between centers on a lathe.

The learner reads step-by-step work instructions and views a drawing for facing and center drilling on a lathe.
