For Automotive I came up with a unit that I believe to be fantastic. The unit consist of buying, selling and transferring a car, along with what to do before a road trip and what to bring.

I could also build on the unit and add what to look for when buying a used vehicle. Give the students a few scenarios to work on in class and have verbal exams.

Being in Northern British Columbia it is important to make sure the vehicle is maintained and the proper tools are available. Sometimes there is no phone service and not very many people on the highways.

I plan on teaching in Northern British Columbia and electronics parts and resources are hard to come by.

This is a link to some electronics kits, the kits come with all the pieces to build what you need.

It is a great idea to order kits because all the parts come with it and it ships to the location.

I picked electric guitar effect pedals because playing guitar is a hobby of mine and manipulating sound is always fun.

This is another site that is great. It has schematics and kits.

This next site I plan on using with the students to teach them about sound theory and show what happens to sound.

Any circuit can be made and you can see what is happening.
