GREEN TECHNOLOGY (STEM) PROGRAM: These courses are designed as a one-year experience for students leading to post-secondary offerings in engineering and technology. The curriculum is a full immersion in STEM based learning. It includes critical thinking, problem solving, technical communication, technical and computer applications.
9021 INTRODUCTION TO ENERGY Credit 1.0/semester Grades 10 - 11 - 12 Requirements: Successful completion (C+ or better) one year High School Math, Science and English.
Introduction to Energy is a foundation program for Alternative Energy Technology, our second semester class on renewable energy technologies. This course prepares students for careers in engineering and technology. This STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) based class will provide hands-on applications with technological topics such as electronic controllers, robotics, digital electronics, computer-aided-design, pneumatics, computer numerical control and rapid prototyping, using state-of-the-industry equipment and software. This course is intended to be semester one of a one-year experience for students leading to post-secondary experiences involving alternative and renewable energy engineering and technology. Students will participate in teams to complete design/build green projects such as eco-friendly hovercrafts, smart homes, maglev trains, and more. **Pending DCC Approval
