OCONTO.Abafundi base-Oconto High School bazothola ithuba lokuhlola amathuba amasha emisebenzi ngokuzama isandla sabo ekushiseleni.
I-Okonto Unified School District ithenge isistimu yokushisela ye-MobileArc augmented reality kanye nephrinta ye-Prusa i3 3D njengengxenye yokuthuthukiswa kobuchwepheshe ka-$20,000 ngaphansi kohlelo lwe-Leap for Learning, ukuthuthukiswa kobuchwepheshe okunikezwa ngokwengxenye ngabakwaGreen Bay Packers kanye ne-UScellular.Kusukela kusibonelelo se-NFL.Isisekelo.
USuperintendent Emily Miller uthe i-virtual welder izonikeza abafundi ithuba lokuzama ukushisela ngaphandle kwezingozi zemvelo zokusha, ukulimala kwamehlo kanye nokushaqeka kukagesi.
“Inhloso yethu ukuhlinzeka abafundi ngamathuba ahlukene e-STEAM (isayensi, ubuchwepheshe, ubunjiniyela, ubuciko, nezibalo) ukuze bafunde ukushisela nokusebenza kwensimbi ezingeni lesikole samabanga aphezulu,” kusho yena.
Isikole samabanga aphezulu sinikela ngezifundo zokushisela izikweletu zasekolishi eNortheastern Wisconsin Technical College.
NgeSimulator Sokushisela, abafundi bangazijwayeza izinqubo zokushisela ezehlukene kusifanisi esingokoqobo esidala ukumelwa kwe-3D kocwecwe lwensimbi.Imisindo engokoqobo ye-arc ihambisana nemiphumela ebonakalayo esiza ukudala umphumela wokuba khona.Abafundi bayagadwa, bahlolwe futhi banikezwe impendulo ngamakhono abo okushisela.Ekuqaleni, uhlelo lokushisela luzosetshenziswa ngabafundi bamabanga 5-8, nakuba lolu hlelo lungadluliselwa kalula ezikoleni zamabanga aphezulu.
"Abafundi bazofunda izinto eziyisisekelo zokushisela, bakhethe ezinhlotsheni ezahlukene zokushisela, futhi basebenzise amasu ahlukene wokushisela endaweni ephephile," kusho uMiller.
I-Virtual Welding Programme iyisibonelo esisodwa sendlela ukubambisana phakathi kwezifunda zesikole namabhizinisi endawo kungasiza ekuqiniseni imiphakathi.U-Chad Henzel, u-NWTC Welding Instructor kanye ne-Operations Manager, i-Yakfab Metals Inc. e-Okonto, uthe imboni yensimbi idinga abashiseli abaningi kanye nezinhlelo ezifana nalezi ezethula abantu abasha kulo msebenzi onenzuzo noguquguqukayo.
“Kuyajabulisa ukwethulwa ngalokhu esikoleni esiphakathi ukuze bakwazi ukwenza amakilasi okushisela esikoleni samabanga aphezulu uma bethanda lokho,” kusho uHenzel.“Ukushisela kungaba umsebenzi othokozisayo uma umuntu enekhono lokukhanda futhi ejabulela ukusebenza ngezandla zakhe.”
I-Yakfab iyisitolo se-CNC somshini, sokushisela kanye nesenziwe ngokwezifiso esisebenzela izimboni ezahlukahlukene ezihlanganisa ezasolwandle, izicishamlilo, iphepha, ukudla namakhemikhali.
“Izinhlobo zomsebenzi (welding) zingaba nzima.Awuvele uhlale esibayeni ushisele amahora angu-10 ugoduke,” usho kanje.Umsebenzi wokushisela ukhokha kahle futhi unikeza amathuba amaningi emisebenzi.
Umphathi wokukhiqiza we-Nercon, uJim Ackes, uthi maningi amathuba emisebenzi ehlukene yabashicileli emikhakheni efana nokukhiqiza, ukwenza insimbi, nokusebenza kwensimbi.I-Welding iyikhono elibalulekile labasebenzi bakwa-Nercon abaklama futhi bakha amasistimu okulethwa kanye nemishini yazo zonke izinhlobo zemikhiqizo yabathengi.
U-Eckes uthi enye yezinzuzo zokushisela ikhono lokudala okuthile ngezandla zakho namakhono akho.
"Ngisho nangendlela elula, udala okuthile," kusho u-Akers."Uyabona umkhiqizo wokugcina nokuthi ungena kanjani kwezinye izingxenye."
Ukusebenzisa ukushisela ezikoleni zamabanga aphezulu kuzovulela abafundi iminyango yemisebenzi okungenzeka ukuthi abazange bacabange ngayo, kusho u-Eckes, futhi konge isikhathi nemali lapho bethweswa iziqu noma imisebenzi abangayifanelekeli.Ngaphezu kwalokho, ngisho nangaphambi kokungena esikoleni samabanga aphakeme, abafundi bangafunda ukudayisa endaweni ephephile, engenakho ukushisa nengozi.
“Ngokushesha ubathola benentshisekelo, kuzoba ngcono kuwe,” kusho u-Akers."Bangakwazi ukuqhubekela phambili futhi benze kangcono."
Ngokuka-Eckes, isipiliyoni sokushisela esikoleni samabanga aphezulu siphinde sisiza ekuqedeni umbono wokuthi ukukhiqiza kuwumsebenzi ongcolile ebumnyameni, kuyilapho empeleni kuwumsebenzi onzima, oyinselele futhi onenzuzo.
Isistimu yokushisela izofakwa elebhu yesikole samabanga aphezulu ye-STEAM ngonyaka wesikole ka-2022-23.I-Virtual Welder ihlinzeka abafundi ngesipiliyoni sokushisela esisebenzayo kanye nethuba elijabulisayo lokuzijwayeza abakufundile.
