Throughout the course student's progress will be measured by their ability to complete numerous tasks and competencies to a level of industry standard deemed appropriate by the instructor. INSTRUCTIONAL PROCEDURES Supervised hands-on practice on modular projects and community/school projects supplemented with lecture, field trips, guest speakers, small group discussion, and academic text work. Instructional delivery includes online an online Blended Classroom. EVALUATION - Grading and credits earned Grades determined as follows: Projects both individual and corporate = 25% Module Tests and weekly quizzes = 25% Participation including Attendance, preparedness, work readiness and safe work habits = 25% Assignments = 25% Credits: Credits and Certificates awarded will depend on the percentage of tasks and competencies completed to industry standards as determined by the instructor and NCCER. OTHER LEARNING OUTCOMES As students work on mastering the skills and competencies associated with this class, certain other outcomes identified by RIVEROAK Technical College will be stressed. They include: Responsibility Students will practice responsibility through their willingness and ability to follow stated program policies and expectations such as: * Adherence to attendance system

5 * Ability to keep track of, and complete required assignments and tasks independently * Willingness to abide by and apply safe working practices * Abiding by all RTC program rules and policies Critical Thinking * Students will demonstrate critical thinking through their ability to find, devise, and decide upon effective construction plans and procedures as well as determine the correct tools and equipment for the job, and communicate the reasons for their strategies either verbally or in writing Aesthetic Awareness Students will demonstrate aesthetic awareness as it applies to the industry by: * Recognizing the appearance and aesthetics of good craftsmanship, as well as demonstrating good craftsmanship by attempting to complete the tasks associated with this class to higher than minimum level of industry standard as interpreted by the instructor * By demonstrating a heightened awareness of, and an increased respect for the environment through proper handling of hazardous materials as outlined in course materials * By maintaining a clean, safe, and professional looking work area; hence an attractive shop RIVEROAK TECHNICAL COLLEGE - Building Technology

6 Grade Worksheet Performance Competency The rubric scale used to determine number of points earned by student is as follows: 0: Unsuccessful attempt unable to meet knowledge or performance criteria and/or required significant assistance. 1: Partial demonstration met some of the knowledge or performance criteria with or without minor assistance. 2: Knowledge demonstrated met knowledge criteria without assistance at least once. 3: Performance demonstrated met performance criteria without assistance at least once. 4: Repetitive demonstration met performance and or knowledge criteria without assistance on multiple occasions. 5: Mastered successfully applied knowledge or skills in this area to solve related problems independently. COMPLETION OF WORK BOOK ASSIGNMENTS = 25% of grade, 25 points possible. Completion of all work book assignments when due, in a neat and orderly manor, equals 25% of grade number of points 25 Tests and quizzes = 25% of grade, 25 points possible. Students are allowed to make up failed test and the final test grade for that test will be the average of the failed test and the make-up test for RTC test grade purposes. NCCER only requires a 70% pass for national certification. A student is not allowed to make up quizzes for an unexcused absent or tardiness. Personal and Corporate Projects = 25% of grade, 25 points possible. Participation = 25% OF GRADE, 25 points possible. Attendance is an important key to your successful completion of this program. Unexcused absences result in a 0 daily participation grade. Assignments = 25% OF GRADE, 25 points possible. This includes text assignments, individual assignments, practice assignments and other assignments the instructor assigns for competency training and verification for individual level. The criterion for this aspect of your evaluation reflects the skills and habits you must demonstrate in order to become a successful employee or business owner.
