Course Catalog Description
This course assumes no previous knowledge about automobiles and their operational systems. The course is designed for the owner/driver, and emphasizes the understanding of the operation of automotive components, consumer awareness, preventive maintenance practices, tune-up procedures, elementary trouble analysis, and minor repairs. Approximately 40 percent of the class time is devoted to discussions and demonstrations and 60 percent to related shop activities on shop units and personal automobiles. This is the type of course automobile owners wish they would have taken. Students who enroll in and complete Automotive Technology 1 will be given special consideration during the selection process for the Gunn Robotics Team (GRT).
