NOW UPDATED FOR 2022-2023!
Prerequisite:
Successful completion of Science 8 AND recommendation of Science 8 teacher
To prepare students for multi-faceted careers in science, technology, and engineering, this course will require students to work collaboratively to solve real world problems. Through projects, students will learn the skills and content grounded in engineering, environmental science, chemistry, and physics. Students will show their proficiency using the designing, building, testing, evaluating, and redesigning of engineering-based solutions; embrace the non-linear analysis of real-world problems. Coursework will emphasize guided student inquiry and guided student synthesis of course topics, with a heavy emphasis on increasing independent problem solving throughout the course of the year.
