This activity is designed to provide practice in the application of Lesson 2 converting magnetic azimuths to grid azimuths |
Convert magnetic azimuths to grid azimuths |
In an outdoor, or indoor, environment, utilizing the skills developed, students convert magnetic azimuths to grid azimuths. The students work in pairs and convert all sixteen azimuths.
Students will determine the azimuths in degrees. The student pairs will record their results and turn them in to the assistant instructor or the instructor for evaluation.
Both students must be prepared to brief instructor on the technique used to determine the azimuth conversions.

Student Resources: 1. Writing paper 2. Pencil 3. Four declination diagrams Instructor Resource: Determined grid azimuths to all 16 problems |
This exercise will be a 'go' or 'no-go' endeavor for this drill To receive a 'go' the student must:
Students not receiving a 'go' will seek the assistance of the instructor or assistant instructor.
Assistant instructors will be students who have received a 'go' and have been instructed on the required teaching techniques. |
