Through SAGE Automation’s understanding of industries’ continual changing needs, SAGE Didactic developed the Conveyor Targeted Technology Introduction Module® (Conveyor TTIM®) system initially to train internal staff (apprentices, graduates, technicians and engineers) and staff of SAGE Automation clients.
The Conveyor TTIM is not simply a product but a totally integrated educational system, which provides a safe and challenging platform for users to gain hands-on experience utilising a range of technologies currently found in industry. Students learn to apply real-world physics, science and mathematics as well as develop problem solving skills through interesting and innovative learning resources which integrate with existing training packages and curriculums. Plus instructors can inject added complexities akin to real life situations, making this system relevant across all levels of education.
A number of educational bodies have successfully incorporated the Conveyor TTIM into their curriculums. The introduction of the Trade Training Centres in Schools Program (TTCiS) now allows secondary schools to include the Conveyor TTIM in their funding applications. The key objectives of the Commonwealth Government’s “Building the Education Revolution” strategy are met by the system, as it supports broad-based industry applications.

SoftwareThe future beholds an increasing adoption of smart and configurable elements. Many elements use firmware/drivers and/or software to operate. These essential components undergo upgrades as determined by the manufacturer, to improve the efficiency of their technology. Upgrades to software/firmware will be provided via our centralised web based system ensuring smooth upgrade transition. |

E-learning ResourcesThe SAGE Didactic Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) provides e-learning resources that can be utilised by the teaching professional and students, 24/7. The resources are modularised enabling easy mix and match to achieve efficient learning outcomes. Every element within the Conveyor TTIM system has associated e-resources including quizzes and activities. The VLE has the ability to report quiz results by student, class or business. Global reporting is currently in development to allow reporting of results by school, region and national. View examples of an e-learning resource and quiz. |

Professional DevelopmentSAGE Didactic provides professional development for two (2) teaching professionals each year, providing technical instruction and understanding on the Conveyor TTIM. Ongoing professional development is considered critical for sustainable success. Teaching professionals firstly need to be comfortable, the confident with what they are working with. They are presented with working systems and trained to meet individual needs. This provides the ‘time poor’ professional a huge leap in course development and a practical content pathway for the over-achievers and the disinclined without compromising the main stream students.
