Using Systems to Solve Problems
- Drawing Engineering Unit Block Design Project
Students will be introduced to basic drawing rules and procedures. They will demonstrate their understanding by designing and building an object within the given parameters. Mechanical orthographic and isometric drawings as well as Computer Aided Drawings (CAD) will be produced.
- Technology Engineering Challenge: CO2 Dragster
This is a hands-on problem solving unit involving the design and construction of a vehicle that is capable of achieving a goal within the specified rules. This includes the application of the Drawing Engineering Unit. Several scientific and mathematical principles and the safe use of hand tools and machines will be a focus..
- Car Builder:
Design of a vehicle on the computer to include sub-systems of the car. For example: chassis and body design, power system, aerodynamics.
- Bio-Technology: Hydroponics Activity
Students will grow food and flowers in a nutrient solution within the biotech lab/ greenhouse.
Data collection including the concentration of hydroponics growing solution, ph, Co2 levels, humidity, temperature and amount of light/artificial is collected and studied.
- Introduction to Electronics Basic Electronic Theory
Using solder-less circuit boards student will construct an electronic device. Current, voltage, magnetism, electronic components and formulas are stressed.
- Extra- Curricular:
