Technology Fundamentals, Safety and Connections: Unit Review

A service, in hospitality and tourism.

(a) construction technology, (b) communications technology, (c) transportation technology.

Technology is using knowledge, tools, materials and processes to meet needs. Examples: a snow shovel, a haircut, a recipe, a canoe.

(a) ergonomics, (b) aesthetics, (c) material.

Sample (restaurant meal): greeting and seating → ordering → cooking → serving → paying. Any service with ordered parts.

Sample: a deep rubber tread (material) grips ice so the wearer is less likely to slip (safety).

Open-loop: it heats for a set time without checking how brown the toast is.

Power: human muscle. Mechanism: gears that turn the beaters faster than the handle.

Examples: use less energy, make it repairable, use recycled materials, design it for recycling.

An invention is a new idea or device; an innovation is putting an idea to effective use, including improvements.

The right to know, to participate and to refuse unsafe work.

Yes, the minimum age for restaurant kitchens (factories) is 15.

All three have duties: the employer provides it, the supervisor makes sure it is used, and the worker must use it.

Elimination, substitution, engineering, administrative, PPE.

1 × 3 = 3 (medium).

(a) chemical, (b) biological, (c) psychosocial.

Rotating parts can catch the glove and pull your hand in.

Making sure a machine cannot be started while someone is repairing or cleaning it.

Hospitality: handwashing, or keeping cold food at 4 °C or colder and hot food at 60 °C or hotter. Transportation: use jack stands and wheel chocks; never work under a vehicle held only by a jack.

Any two: feet flat, knees about level with hips, back supported, elbows about 90°, wrists straight, top of screen at or slightly below eye level.

Turn by moving your feet.

Kids Help Phone: 1-800-668-6868 or text CONNECT to 686868.

Labels, safety data sheets (SDS), and education and training.

The container is dangerous (for example, it could explode).

To a household hazardous waste depot or used-oil collection, never down a drain or on the ground.

Sample: A person who uses a wheelchair needs a way to reach items on high shelves, because the shelves are out of their reach when seated.

Examples: charging stations, more electricity generation, battery recycling, trained EV technicians.

Sample: aging population; rising energy prices; climate change or cold winters.

(a) legal, (b) economic, (c) ethical (and legal, if privacy laws apply).

Up to 20 years from filing.

Sample: a cheaper plastic part (economic) that is harder to recycle (environmental).

The B7 snowmobile (1937), which led to the Ski-Doo.

Elsie MacGill (first woman in Canada to earn an electrical engineering degree, aircraft designer), Ursula Franklin (physicist, The Real World of Technology) or Julie Payette (engineer, astronaut who operated the Canadarm).

To catch errors, especially for dates and "first" claims.

Corn supports climbing beans, beans add nitrogen to the soil, and squash shades the soil and blocks weeds; together they grow better and give balanced food.

It was made of wood and rawhide, with no metal parts.

Any two: learn first, find the right contact, ask permission and protocols, listen, record with permission, credit, give back, respect limits.

Short-term: faster travel. Long-term: suburbs, highways, pollution, emissions (any one).

The gap between people with good access to digital technology and the internet and people without it.

Negative.

Raw materials, manufacturing, transport, use, end of life.

Reduces: repetitive assembly or cashier work. Creates: robot technician, programmer, millwright (any one each).

Local: jobs, traffic, land use. Global: lower emissions if EVs replace gas cars; demand for minerals from other countries.

Ozone-depleting chemicals such as CFCs.

Early on a technology is easy to change but its impacts are hard to predict; later its impacts are clear but it is hard to change.

Any two: AI, self-driving cars, 3D printing, delivery drones, cold-climate heat pumps, advanced batteries.

Health care: PSW, RPN, RN, paramedic, lab technologist (any two). Manufacturing: machinist, welder, millwright, tool and die maker, CNC programmer (any two).

Any four: critical thinking and problem solving; innovation, creativity and entrepreneurship; self-directed learning; collaboration; communication; global citizenship and sustainability; digital literacy.

Answers vary; look for a specific skill and a real example.

Apprenticeship, college, university, workplace.

About 10 to 15%.

In-school: co-op, OYAP, SHSM, dual credits. Community: pre-apprenticeship, Employment Ontario, Skills Ontario, union training centres, ISET programs, Level Up! (any one each).

Compulsory.
