Grade 8

Tech Ed

Programming

Students will be developing code to program a drone to operate autonomously in accomplishing tasks or goals. This area of study is particularly important in automated assembly lines, autopilot features in transportation, and exploring the world of "thinking" robots.

3D Modeling

Students have been taking part in the development of 3D models to showcase their creativity and ingenuity. While it may not seem so, 3D modeling plays an important part in a lot of what we do. It's used to design and test products, in manufacturing, and has even seen utilization in medicine.

Weekly "Wow!"

Each week I am beyond amazed at what my students come up with. To keep up with what they are showing me, each week I'll include something I came across during our week of learning.
