This course is centered around four 10-week hands-on projects where students take on the role of engineers. The knowledge and skills students acquire throughout PLTW Engineering come together in EDD as they identify an issue and then research, design and test a solution, ultimately presenting their solution to a panel of engineers. Students apply the professional skills they have developed to document a design process to standards, completing EDD ready to take on any post-secondary program or career.
You will create: sketches, research existing products, contact representatives in the field, prototypes, unlimited use of the 3D printers to create different concepts, surveys and a professional looking engineering notebook that documents your process.
Use of the new labs and the equipment.
You must be a senior and complete 3 PLTW classes prior
