My Students
My students are amazing innovators who experience their world through a technology enhanced reality. Our 6th and 7th classes are an introduction to Computer Science, including coding, problem solving and process design. Our 8th graders will participate in Career Technical Education class to explore several different topics. These are elective courses that are designed to expand students' ability to interface with computers, explore Career/Technical pathways and develop collaboration/teamwork skills.
We endeavor to challenge middle schoolers to expand their concept of technology beyond their smart phone or computer, we introduce them to game theory and app design to expand their ability to see why we are compelled to play/use our screens, and we inspire them to not only play video games/consume applications but create them as well.
For some students this course is their first experience programming, while other students bring years of coding experience to the classroom which creates unique opportunities for students to use teamwork to solve challenges or rethink solutions. Having a wide diversity of backgrounds and skills leads my students to produce a range of novel solutions to the challenges presented to them.
My Project
Our new course this year is Career Technical Educations, where students will explore career fields and get an opportunity to research several fields of study over the year. Students will research and experience activities in areas such as energy, personal finance, basic home repair, digital manufacturing, and biotechnology.
Our content includes multimedia and hands-on activities, perfect to inspire students to find new areas of interest.
This project hopes to supply a new display area will allow students to show off their work. Reusable sheet protectors will allow students to work together/practice note taking and headphones are for students who need to listen to videos as part of the modules.
