Students will rotate through several modules throughout the semester. Most modules include some reading, writing, video viewing, computer interaction and a hands on project that the students may keep. Below is a list of the current modules available and a brief description. Students learn about flight technology, use the software Flight Simulator, and build paper and balsa gliders. Students learn about space technology, build a model rocket, and build a space station and lunar vehicle from a lego set.
Students learn structural technology, and design build and test a bridge made out of balsa wood.
