PLUMBING APPRENTICESHIP ASSESSMENT

COURSE PLA3445: HEATING

Level: First Period Apprenticeship

Prerequisite: PLA3900: Apprenticeship Safety

Description: Students develop a strong foundation in the basics of hot water heating terminology and principles with a good working knowledge of hot water heating components and systems.

Parameters: Access to a materials work centre, complete with basic plumbing tools and materials, and to instruction from an individual with journeyperson certification in the plumbing trade.

ILM Resources: Introduction and Definitions 060103a; Boilers and Trim 060103b

This sample rubric is for assessing technical elements that students need to know to be successful if they challenge the first-period apprenticeship exam. The rubric does not include the last two common outcomes that address the demonstration of teamwork and personal management and identification of steps to achieve personal goals. It is the certificated teacher’s responsibility to ensure that all outcomes are taught and assessed.

|Assessment Tools |Notes |

|Checklist |Prior to instruction, a copy of the checklist should be provided to the student to review outcomes that will need to be demonstrated. |

| |The student may use this checklist as a guide when completing this course. |

| |The teacher should review and sign the checklist when the course is complete to ensure student outcomes have been successfully demonstrated. |

|Rubric |Prior to instruction, a copy of the rubric should be provided to the student to review and reflect on meeting expectations set out in the criteria. |

| |This rubric may be used as one element of an assessment process. Teachers should use both formative and summative assessments to ensure students’ competency|

PLUMBING APPRENTICESHIP ASSESSMENT

COURSE PLA3460: GAS THEORY

Level: First Period Apprenticeship

Prerequisite: PLA3900: Apprenticeship Safety

PLA3455: Gas Fundamentals

Description: Students learn that the combustion process has to be done in a controlled environment set up by the appliance manufacturer. Students have to complete all required field adjustments and verify that the appliance is operating correctly using the rating plate to set the parameters for that controlled environment. Students also learn the minimum standards required to keep costs down while maintaining a safe and efficient industry.

Parameters: Access to a materials work centre, complete with basic plumbing tools and materials, and to instruction from an individual with journeyperson certification in the plumbing trade.

ILM Resources: Properties of Gases and Principles of Combustion 080103e; Measurement and Calculation of Pressure Drop 080104a; Natural Draft Burner Adjustments and Gas Consumption 080104b

This sample rubric is for assessing technical elements that students need to know to be successful if they challenge the first-period apprenticeship exam. The rubric does not include the last two common outcomes that address the demonstration of teamwork and personal management and identification of steps to achieve personal goals. It is the certificated teacher’s responsibility to ensure that all outcomes are taught and assessed.

|Assessment Tools |Notes |

|Checklist |Prior to instruction, a copy of the checklist should be provided to the student to review outcomes that will need to be demonstrated. |

| |The student may use this checklist as a guide when completing this course. |

| |The teacher should review and sign the checklist when the course is complete to ensure student outcomes have been successfully demonstrated. |

|Rubric |Prior to instruction, a copy of the rubric should be provided to the student to review and reflect on meeting expectations set out in the criteria. |

| |This rubric may be used as one element of an assessment process. Teachers should use both formative and summative assessments to ensure students’ competency|

PLUMBING APPRENTICESHIP ASSESSMENT

COURSE PLA3475: PRINT READING

Level: First Period Apprenticeship

Prerequisite: PLA3900: Apprenticeship Safety

Description: Students learn how to read and interpret blueprints to correctly determine measurements and locations within a building. Students will also develop an understanding of scale and dimensioning practices and the use of common styles of drawings.

Parameters: Access to a materials work centre, complete with basic plumbing tools and materials, and to instruction from an individual with journeyperson certification in the plumbing trade.

ILM Resources: Introduction to Sketching and Drawing 060105g; Blueprint Interpretation 060105h; Single Line Drawing in Blueprint Interpretation 060105i; Interpretation of Blueprint Package DP060105j

This sample rubric is for assessing technical elements that students need to know to be successful if they challenge the first-period apprenticeship exam. The rubric does not include the last two common outcomes that address the demonstration of teamwork and personal management and identification of steps to achieve personal goals. It is the certificated teacher’s responsibility to ensure that all outcomes are taught and assessed.

|Assessment Tools |Notes |

|Checklist |Prior to instruction, a copy of the checklist should be provided to the student to review outcomes that will need to be demonstrated. |

| |The student may use this checklist as a guide when completing this course. |

| |The teacher should review and sign the checklist when the course is complete to ensure student outcomes have been successfully demonstrated. |

|Rubric |Prior to instruction, a copy of the rubric should be provided to the student to review and reflect on meeting expectations set out in the criteria. |

| |This rubric may be used as one element of an assessment process. Teachers should use both formative and summative assessments to ensure students’ competency|

| |in this course. |
