Senior Capstone Project
Culminating STEAM Experience with PLTW
Culminating STEAM Experience with PLTW
The senior capstone course utilizes an inquiry-based framework to investigate real world problems from a STEAM perspective. With the help of Project Lead the Way, students embark on an open-ended research course in which students work in teams to design and develop an original solution to a well-defined and justified open-ended problem. Teams draw on the knowledge, skills, and interests of each member, as they perform research to select, define, and justify a problem. As they progress through the problem-solving process, students work closely with experts and continually hone their organizational, communication, and interpersonal skills. At the conclusion of the course, teams present and defend their original solution to an outside panel of staff, faculty, and peers.
