Intro Tech Drawing & Design
(STEM Class) - Students will build on the MYP Design Technology concepts learned with a focus on 3D Computer Aided Drafting (CAD) software used in the industry. Students will learn how to design, modify, assemble and manage complex parts in a 3D space as well as produce 2D drawings from the 3D models. The use of SolidWorks will allow students to bring their projects to the real world through additive or subtractive manufacturing techniques. Technology and Engineering 1 will end with all students taking the Certified SolidWorks Associate (CSWA) exam, an Industry Certification Test.
