Review Current Practical Skills Assessment in Machining Course Based on Psychomotor Domain

The acquisition of psychomotor skills is a key competency in engineering field. In manufacturing courses, engineering workshop practices and laboratory work provide students with practical skills (hands-on activities) thus enhance knowledge prior to their future career. This paper discuss the current levels of practical skills acquired by students´ in engineering workshop machining classes with reference to Engineering Accreditation Council (EAC), Malaysian Qualification Agency (MQA) and (Ministry of Education) MOE standards. The findings will be apply to teaching and learning method related accordingly to the specific taxonomy for further enhancement in machining courses.
