Student Learning Outcomes

Discipline: Aeronautics, Transportation Certificate: Unmanned Aircraft Systems – M0662
Course Name Course Number
Basic Digital and Film Photography PHOT 10 (VOC)
  • Demonstrate appropriate shutter settings for motion and freeze action, employ techniques for motion control.
  • Identify compositional elements (i.e. line, texture, shape, patterns, perspective) of a photographic image ), applying use of design elements and compositional guidelines in photographic images.
  • Select and present photographs in a presentation format appropriate to the subject (e.g. dry mounting , digital media, projection.)
  • Relate aperture settings to resulting depth of field characteristics, employ techniques for depth of field control.
  • Identify and describe the parts of a camera (i.e. lens, f/stop, shutter, etc.) and their functions, demonstrating correct use of 35mm film and DSLR cameras.
  • Students completing Photography courses will know the core skills of f/stop control. They will understand the standard f/stop values (1.4, 2, 2.8, 4, 5.6, 8, 11, 16, 22, 32) and how aperture affects exposure, and depth of field.
  • Determine correct exposure values to produce photographic images, applying use of meters for correct exposure, equivalent exposure, and bracketing.
  • Students completing Photography courses will demonstrate proficiency in shutter control. They will understand standard shutter speed settings (1000, 500, 250, 125, 60, 30, 15, 8, 4, 2, 1) and their functions, specifically how shutter speed regulates both exposure and the rendering of motion in an image.
Primary Pilot Ground School AERO 100
  • Recognize symbols and decode data from aeronautical charts.
  • Analyze the fundamentals of airplane and helicopter aerodynamics and flight characteristics.
  • Calculate and complete a flight planning log using aircraft performance data, aeronautical charts, navigation plotter, and manual flight computer.
  • Identify terms and vocabulary associated with piloting and air traffic control.
  • Use and read six basic flight instruments.
  • Interpret radio navigation instruments and determine the aircraft line of position.
  • Students will demonstrate their understanding of the various procedures and techniques utilized in cross-country flight navigation
  • Students will be able to compute safe limits of aircraft weight and balance on light aircraft.
Unmanned Aircraft Systems Advanced AERO 210
  • Plan geospatial mapping mission using a fixed wing or multi-rotor unmanned aircraft and demonstrate the capture of data in simulated or actual conditions.
Unmanned Aircraft Systems Basic AERO 160
  • Identify the aviation regulations and operating practices issued by the Federal Aviation Administration concerning unmanned aircraft operations.
