CASE Agricultural Power and Technology (APT) Materials Package
This materials package supports the Agricultural Power and Technology (APT) course developed by CASE™ (Curriculum for Agricultural Science Education). APT is one of five foundational courses within the CASE sequence. Students are immersed in inquiry-based exercises filled with activities, projects, and problems that focus upon the form and function of material, machines, and tools used in agriculture. Students will apply technical skill while becoming competent in the process that is used to operate, repair, engineer, and design agricultural tools and equipment. This materials package contains LAB-AIDS equipment as specified by CASE and includes enough material for 20 students.
CASE curriculum and laboratory instructions are NOT included in this kit and are only available through course certification at a CASE Institute.
