Anyone can take a digital picture, but not everyone can take a quality digital picture or edit pictures in a way that makes them interesting. This course is designed to provide students with hands-on experiences in digital camera handling, composition, and digital printmaking.

Take photography to the next level! This course takes the skills and knowledge of Digital Photo 1 and applies them to more complex projects and advanced concepts such as event photography, matting and framing, studio lighting and aerial photography.

Through experiences designed around project based learning, students will work with graphic design software to create, design, and develop visual projects. Students will work hands on with sublimation printing, Vinyl cutting, glass etching and other media. Students will learn in a career based environment through teamwork and individual product contribution.

This course provides introductory training in video production. Instruction will cover storyboarding, video script writing, field videography, editing, and production terms. By producing short film projects, students will learn how to use video production equipment to express their creativity and demonstrate their acquired skills.

Involve yourself in the exciting world of architecture and engineering! The major focus of IED is the design process and its application. Through hands-on projects, students apply engineering/architectural standards and document their work. Students use industry standard 3D modeling software to help them design solutions to solve proposed problems, document their work using an engineer’s notebook and communicate solutions to peers.

The Robotics experience will provide the student with an overall study of robotic construction, coding, automation, and bluetooth control. The class will study the aspects of physics and mechanical systems applied to robotic build activities, projects, and game challenges. The robotic equipment used for this class will be Vex Robotics systems. Robots to be built may include the crane, square bots, speed bot, stair climbers along with robotic arms, possible battle bots, and sport-like games. This provides a continuation from the 8th grade Automations and Robotics curriculums and aligns with the high school Principals of Engineering course

Create projects using a variety of materials from wood to glass to epoxy resin. Use the latest in hand and power tools as well as computer aided technology. Projects include pens, furniture, cutting boards, signs, and more! Woods 1 is a hands on learning class with an emphasis in fundamentals and safety
