Single-Phase Motors: Introduction to Phase-Splitting
Learners will understand how the interaction of the armature magnetic field and the rotating stator field cause the rotor of a single-phase AC motor to turn.
Students view a video that shows the correct methods for starting a GTAW weld pool and adding filler. It focuses on the two problems that many students have – adding filler too soon and angling the torch so that the filler melts prematurely on the filler rod. Note: This activity is 3.6 mb.
In this screencast, students read about the basic organization and structure of the periodic table of elements. Students identify elements as belonging to a group, a period, or neither.
In this learning activity, you’ll explore the characteristics of common, carbon steel shielded metal arc welding electrodes, which fall under American Welding Society specification A5.1.
Introduction to Records Management: Types of Records
In this interactive object, learners read an overview of records management and then classify records as "vital," "important," "useful," or "nonessential" in a drag-and-drop exercise.
This animated guide presents an FAA map and aerial photos showing various areas of interest to student pilots enrolled in flight training at FVTC Aviation at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh, WI. The airport is the site of the annual Experimental Aircraft Association's AirVenture Oshkosh. This object has sound.
Introduction to Safety in the Chemistry Lab (Video)
Learners read about lab equipment and basic safety measures. In a quiz, they view photos and determine if the lab technicians pictured are using safe practices.
In this interactive object, learners read an explanation of the electrodes used for welding with the GMAW and FCAW processes. In two matching exercises, students test their knowledge of classification and specification numbers.
Weight-Volume Relationships: Introduction to a 3-Phase Diagram
In this animated activity, students read about weight-volume relationships within a given sample of soil or aggregate. They complete problems using a 3-phase diagram.
