Metallurgy

Definition

I can identify differences between ferrous and non-ferrous metals, recognize the difference between hot rolled (HR) and cold rolled (CR) materials, describe production of iron, steel, and cast irons and their classifications, and explain the differences between heat-treatment processes commonly used in welding.

Level of Mastery:
Developing

Inconsistent with identifying materials; unable to explain differences between HR and CR steels; unable to explain heat treatment.

Level of Mastery:
Developed

Able to recognize ferrous and non ferrous materials, able to explain production of materials, and explain heat treatment processes.

Level of Mastery:
Highly Developed

Able to explain differences between ferrous and non ferrous materials, visually identify HR and CR materials, able to demonstrate a variety of heat treatment processes, and able to accurately explain material production.

Example Assessment:
