TIC: Mr N Booth
Level 1 Robotics: Digital Technologies Electronics (11DTE)
This new course offers the opportunity for students to extend their experience of the year 10 program in electronics
technology or start a program of study in the applications and manipulation of electronics environments for
technological applications.
| Number |
Name of standard | Literacy/Numeracy | Credits |
Assessment |
| AS91047 | Undertake development to make a prototype to address a brief | 6 | Internal | |
| AS91050 | Demonstrate understanding of the role of subsystems in technological systems | 4 | External | |
| AS91077 | Demonstrate understanding of basic concepts used in the design and construction of electronic environments | L | 3 | Internal |
| AS91078 | Implement basic interfacing procedures in a specified electronic environment | 3 | Internal | |
| AS91079 | Implement basic techniques in constructing a specified electronic and embedded system | 3 | Internal | |
| US18239 | Demonstrate introductory knowledge of circuit concepts and measurements for electronics | 5 | Internal |
You will learn to:
• solve technological problems
• use basic electrical theory
• recognise and use electronic components to build circuits for digital control applications
• design, construct and test the electronic circuit
Course cost: $25 This will cover the materials and component costs of most of the projects undertaken as a
part of the course, however any extra materials needed for self-directed and complex or large projects may require
the purchase of extra or specialist components

| AS2.7 | Discuss the implications of redundancy and reliability in technological systems | 4 | External |
| AS2.4 | Determine resources to develop a prototype | 6 | Internal |
| US18241 | Demonstrate knowledge of basic electronic systems | 5 | Internal |
You will learn to:
• solve technological problems
• use advanced electrical theory
• recognise and use electronic components and systems
• design and construct electronic circuits
• design and construct electro-mechanical systems
• write programming for embedded electronic systems
Prerequisites: successfully completed the level 1 Robotics course with at least 13 credits or completed an
appropriate technology or science course
Course cost: $30 this will cover the materials and component costs of most of the projects undertaken as a
part of the course, however, any extra materials needed for self-directed and complex or large projects may require
the purchase of extra or specialist components
Due to changes currently being made to level 2 standards by NZQA, there may be some minor changes to this
course in 2012.
