If you don’t feel that you understand the explanation on the rubric, look to the requirements for clarification. Make sure that it is saved on your H:/ drive so that I can grade it through VCastle.

This course allows students to explore technological concepts and principles and related career fields. We will cover design and problem solving, technology systems, technical sketching, Computer Aided Design (CAD), graphic design, modeling skills, computer skills, computer systems and electronics.

This course will be beneficial because they will have the opportunity to develop skills that can be used now and for the rest of their lives. They may even have the opportunity to work with tools that they have never used before. I stress:  being on time, being prepared, participating every day and respecting yourself and others.

The activities in this class are designed to integrate physical and social sciences, mathematics and language and fine arts. This course contributes to the creation of a career development plan. It will enhance students’ appreciation of technical and engineering career fields.
