Märksõnad:

Automotive Technician Training is the definitive student textbook for automotive engineering. It covers all the theory and technology sections that students need to learn in order to pass levels 1, 2 and 3 automotive courses. It is recommended by the Institute of the Motor Industry and is ideal for courses and exams run by other awarding bodies. This revised edition overhauls the coverage of general skills and advanced diagnostic techniques. It also includes a new chapter about electric and hybrid vehicles and advanced driver-assistance systems, along with new online learning activities.

Unlike current textbooks on the market, this takes a blended-learning approach, using interactive features that make learning more enjoyable and effective. It is ideal to use on its own but when linked with IMI eLearning online resources, it provides a comprehensive package that includes activities, video footage, assessments and further reading. Information and activities are set out in sequence to meet teacher and learner needs, as well as qualification requirements.



This textbook covers all the theory and technology sections that students need to learn in order to pass levels 1, 2 and 3 automotive courses. It is recommended by the Institute of the Motor Industry and connects with the ATT online learning resources, and is ideal for exams run by other awarding bodies.

Arvustused

"The writing is clear, concise and both authors' styles blend well... Useful for not just students cramming for their exams but also professionals wanting to re-cap their knowledge."

-- Autotechnician Magazine "The writing is clear, concise and both authors' styles blend well... Useful for not just students cramming for their exams but also professionals wanting to re-cap their knowledge."

-- Autotechnician Magazine

It goes through the fundamentals of all areas of the automotive technician: from health and safety to the working environment, to tools and equipment to electrical systems to future systems.
