Part of Lesson Plan: **Vacuum Testing / Driveability (updated) by Michael Fleming
Activity Overview / Details
I find that when students study and transfer the knowledge from a textbook or study sheet, the information is remembered longer. I use our textbook from Prentice Hall Media by James Jalderman, but the attachment is from the Internet. Project the study sheet for all to see. Stress to students that the best mechanics are the ones who are capable of doing research and then apply their new knowledge into a real situation. Give students the attached worksheet to write all the vacuum readings for varied engine problems located on the bottom of the page. Only after they drawn and labeled each example may they go out to perfom the lab exercise part.
