Workshop safety and Lab coats
Why Should We Wear Lab Coats?
- Lab coats are personal protective equipment and should be worn in the workshop when working with tools and electrical equipment to avoid scraps and cuts.
- Appropriate lab coats should be fully buttoned with sleeves rolled down. They should also be fire-resistant.
- In case of an accident, it is much faster and easier to remove a lab coat than street clothes to minimize skin contact with hazardous materials.
When to Wear Lab Coats
- Always wear lab coats when working in a workshop.
- always wear lab coats when working with tools and heavy equipment.
When NOT to Wear Lab Coats
- Don't wear lab coats in public places, such as offices, lunch rooms, lounge areas, or elsewhere outside the laboratory, as they can transfer hazardous materials and contaminate these areas.

Module 3 - Identification and specification of electrical components - Electrical workshop
Module 3:
Dear Students,
Below is the list of information you need to know from Module 3 of electrical workshop.
- 9 basic electrical components from Module 3
- lamp - light indicator
- motor - motion indicator
- buzzer - sound indicator
- resistor - limit the flow of current
- variable resistor - adjust or control the flow of current
- LDR - light dependent resistor - resistance changes with light intensity
- capacitor - used to store electrical charge
- inductor - used to store magnetic field
- diode - lets current flow in one direction only
- You should know the function and uses of all the electrical components
- Resistor color code
- BBROY from Great Britain has a Very Good Wife
- Capacitor color code, you should understand the 3 numbers written on capacitors and determine the value of the capacitors from there.
- End of chapter questions and answers.

Applications of Capacitors, Inductors and Diodes

Capacitors:
Capacitors are used for several purposes:- Timing - for example with a timer controlling the charging and discharging.
- Smoothing - for example in a power supply.
- Filtering - for example in the tone control of an audio system.
- Tuning - for example in a radio system.
- Storing energy - for example in a camera flash circuit.

Inductors:
- Traffic Light Sensors: to detect the car and change the signal from red to green.
- Flittering: to filter out noise in any voice signal.


Diodes:
- Light Emitting Diodes
- Rectifier Circuits
- Directing current in one direction only
- Vending Machines

Exam Tips
Tests and exams are a
regular part of the school environment. It is important that exams be kept in
proportion - they are important, but not the end of the world. Some things can
be done to make exams a more valuable, worthwhile and less threatening experience
for students.
1.
Have all necessary material with you:
a.
You
can't borrow items such as pens, pencils, rulers or special equipment while in
an examination.
2.
Have a relaxing night before your exams:
a.
Have an early night, and try to have a healthy breakfast.
3.
Read the entire paper:
a. Where you have choices, decide which ones you plan to answer.
4.
Plan your time:
a. Spend some time drafting a plan for the questions you choose to
answer.
5.
Jot down ideas as they come to you:
a. While you are answering one question, information about another
may suddenly occur to you. Jot it down somewhere because when you come to that
question perhaps an hour later, you may have forgotten it.
6.
Don't leave any questions unanswered:
a. If you are short of time, use note form. Remember, you can only
be marked on the answers you give.
7.
Never leave the room early:
a. If you have time at the end, go over your work, add information
(eg in the margin). You can't return if you suddenly remember a fact after you
have left.
8.
Do not spend too long on multiple choice questions:
a. With multiple-choice questions it is best to cover the answers
and work out your own before looking at the choices on paper. If you can't
answer the question come back to it later - have a guess.
9.
Never omit an entire question:
a. No matter how well you answer other questions, you must leave
time for all questions - a perfect answer can still only earn a certain number
of marks. If you write nothing, you can't receive any marks and you have lost
all your marks for a particular question. Write something - it may at least
give you a few points.
10.
Maintain a stable energy level:
a. Eating foods such as chocolate bars before an exam might give
you an energy boost to begin with but your blood sugar levels will drop within
an hour and your energy will plunge dramatically, making it hard for you to
concentrate.

Good Luck!!!
As we near the end of first semester, we would like to remind our students to finish strong!
We strongly encourage students and parents to focus on the importance of finishing each semester strong, making sure time is spent on those missing homework assignments as well as studying for final tests.
Good luck to all of our students in their efforts to finish strong this semester.
