and Teacher<br />

Recommendation<br />

Full Year - 1 Credit<br />

Class Fee of $25<br />

The purpose of this course is to serve<br />

as a capstone course to provide STEM<br />

Education students with the<br />

opportunity, to develop a project from<br />

"vision" to "reality". Working in teams<br />

to design, engineer, manufacture,<br />

construct, test, redesign, test again,<br />

and then produce a finished "project".<br />

This would involve using ALL of the<br />

knowledge previously learned, not<br />

only in technology education, but<br />

across the curriculum.<br />

Partnership with SPC allows<br />

students to earn college credit<br />

upon completion of Advanced<br />

Applications in Technology.<br />
