This course was designed for students who prefer hands-on, collaborative learning and who want to learn more about applying their knowledge to real-world projects. It will help answer that question that all math teachers hear - "when am I ever going to use this?"
This is a year-long, two period course. Students will receive both a math credit and an Arts or elective credit.
Course Description:
Course Description:
This course is the study of geometry concepts, such as analysis of plane, solid, and coordinate geometry, as they relate to design. Using geometric concepts, 3-D printers, laser cutters/etchers & CNC Benchtop Milling Machines students will create innovative prototypes and 3-D masterpieces. The primary geometry units of study (congruence and similarity, properties of lines, triangles, quadrilaterals, circles, length, perimeter, area, circumference, surface area, and volume) will be supported through applications of ComputerAided Design (CAD) software, standards of representation, problem-solving models and engineering design process.
Students will demonstrate learning through the use of 3-D printers, laser cutters/etchers and CNC Benchtop Milling Machines. Students will create innovative prototypes and 3-D masterpieces by producing designs and constructing projects. Students will further demonstrate learning through unit tests and cumulative semester exams.
