About the Course<br />
The integrated technology<br />
will allow students to practice<br />
and enhance their communication<br />
and time management<br />
skills while at the same time<br />
allowing the students to engage<br />
in hands-on learning.<br />
This course offers amazing<br />
opportunities for grade nine<br />
students to use some of today’s<br />
leading software and<br />
programs such as:<br />
• Auto CAD<br />
• Windows Movie Maker<br />
• 3D Studio Max<br />
Students will use these programs<br />
to help them construct<br />
several of their major projects<br />
and assignments throughout the<br />
course.<br />

Straw Towers<br />
This project is to teach students how to<br />
work as a team to achieve a common goal. Each<br />
team will work productively together to con-<br />
struct a tower made entirely of plastic straws.<br />
Students will have to use problem solving skills<br />
to make their tower sturdy and strong to support<br />
itself. This assignment will also help students<br />
learn about group dynamics and how<br />
to create a successful team.<br />
Paper Cars<br />
Students will learn how to make an elec-<br />
trical circuit systems. Students will make a<br />
small paper car and attach small LED lights<br />
onto the car, then using a computer interface<br />
they will program<br />
the LEDs. This as-<br />
signment will allow<br />
students to enjoy<br />
hands-on and inter-<br />
active learning.<br />
Rocket Bottles<br />
Students will need to use problem solving<br />
skills to design and create their very own rocket<br />
bottle. The challenge of this assignment is to create<br />
a sturdy rocket bottle that will reach astounding<br />
heights but will also protect an egg carefully placed<br />
inside. Students will learn about the different<br />
forces responsible for the propulsion<br />
and drag of their<br />
rocket and how aerodynamics<br />
play an important role in the<br />
flight of<br />
the bottle<br />
rocket.<br />
A u t o C A D<br />
(software developed by<br />
Autodesk) is one of the<br />
leading programs for<br />
two and three dimen-<br />
sional design and drafting. Students will learn how<br />
to view and draw objects from different angles and<br />
will be educated on how to find the most effective<br />
perspective to draw two and three dimensional ob-<br />
jects on this program.<br />
AutoCAD<br />
CO2 Cars<br />
3D Studio Max<br />
3D Studio Max (software developed by<br />
Autodesk) is one of the leading programs for three<br />
dimensional animation and design. Many of the top<br />
rated movies, animations, and games have been cre-<br />
ated using this amazing program and students will<br />
now be able to explore this new world of 3D anima-<br />
tion for themselves!<br />
Students will be<br />
given several as-<br />
signments that will<br />
allow them to learn<br />
about modeling,<br />
rendering, and ani-<br />
mation.<br />
Students will learn<br />
about the engineering proc-<br />
ess used in the designing and building of a CO2<br />
propelled race car. Students will have to balance<br />
variables such as friction and weight of the car<br />
while designing and building their dragster for<br />
racing in a school safe environment with teacher<br />
supervision. The main objective of this assign-<br />
ment is to make a CO2 that will blaze down the<br />
track faster than anyone<br />
else’s!
