The foundations of Mechanical Technology
During the activities, the learner engages in investigating, diagnosing, adjusting, removing, replacing, designing, manufacturing and applying the necessary skills to provide solutions to problems in mechanical systems, processes and components. Mechanical Technology is however not limited to these processes.
It affords learners with opportunities for lifelong learning, self-development, empowerment, awareness of human rights, and exposure to socio-economic and environmental injustices, access to the latest international trends and innovations, and an awareness of the process of globalisation.
Valuing indigenous knowledge systems, it acknowledges the rich history and heritage of this country as important contributors to nurturing the values contained in the Constitution.
