Program Goals |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Program goals are broad statements concerning knowledge, skills, or values that the faculty members expect the graduating students to achieve. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
A. Program Goal: This program is designed to develop an understanding of the basic purpose, construction, operation and service of component parts and assemblies of an automobile. Students will develop the knowledge and skills required to disassemble, inspect, reassemble and perform basic repairs and maintenance on motor vehicle units and components. Program Learning Outcomes: 1. Identify safety and occupational health requirements in the specific trade area being studied. 2. Use competently specified hand and power tools. 3. Read and interpret information from technical drawings related to the respective trade. 4. Perform hand skills in their respective trades. 5. Participate in the respective trade. |

Program History |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
This section describes the history of the program. This includes the date and reason of implementation, significant milestones in the development of the program, and significant current activities. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Fall Semester 2005, Spring 2006, Summer 2006 –first program offering; Fall 2006 –was not offered to pave way for offering of new program -Small Engine Equipment & Outboard Motor Repair; Fall 2007 –this program was offered from then on Course outlines were made following the program learning objectives under the Certificate of Achievement in Career Education, which already existed in the COM-FSM catalogue. It was designed to have a maximum student seating of ten (10). There were ten (10) first batched of students during Fall 2005. Significant milestones / current activities: Since its implementation, students were involved in various activities such as repairs and maintenance services of vehicles from the community, college faculty, staff and including college vehicles. Fabrication of trainers that were shown during the annual Technology & Trade Exhibit was started since 2007 up to the present. During its maiden year, a move was made to initiate support from the public to donate their used cars for students to work on. Generous donors answered the call and the college received six (6) cars that were dismantled by the students and work-study groups. These assemblies and components were made as laboratory trainers for students. The United States Department of Agriculture (Pohnpei) donated one Toyota Pick-up for students learning and college use in the year 2011. Students repaired the vehicle and now used as college transport at Pohnpie Campus. In Spring 2013 Mr. Robert Orosco a Filipino, donated one diesel engine for students’ practical hands on. In fall 2013 Mr. Mangubat and his worked-study students made training mock up of one Nissan Engine with complete accessories that they got from junkyard at Nett’s Area. This helps the students for engine starting & ignition system. In Summer 2013, VTM-103 students made another electrical mock- up for practical activity. This auto-electricity mock –up helps the students to learn and have actual practice in lighting & car electrical system. Those mock-ups and practical hands on helped the students to be interested in the program. In 2014, MVM became more progressive as many students wanted to enroll because they also heard good things about the program. During this year, additional mock up was made which is Toyota 5A with complete set of rotating stand for engine overhauling. We also made steering and suspension assembly with complete set of frame. For more development of the MVM Program, it created CTE Servicing during 2015 wherein the students accepted some job order from nearby community. Students just accept car for repair that is related in their current discussion to help more in their practical hands on. 2016 – Re-established the MVM program advisory council. |
