Technology and Engineering (CTE, AAF-S, PS)

A fee may be required in these courses

Electronics 1 | Course #8500 | Credits (CTE) | Grades 10-12 | Credits .5
The first in a sequence of courses that prepares individuals to apply technical knowledge and skills to assemble and operate electrical/electronic equipment used in business, industry, and manufacturing.  Instruction includes training in safety, electrical theory, parallel and series circuits, Kirchoff’s Laws, schematic diagrams, electrical components, and soldering.

Electronics 2 | Course #8501 | Credits (CTE) | Grades 10-12 | Credits .5
The second in a sequence of courses that prepares individuals to apply technical knowledge and skills to assemble and operate electrical/electronic equipment used in business, industry, and manufacturing.  Instruction includes training in safety, numbering systems, Boolean algebra, logic diagrams, digital devices, and combinational logic circuits.

Engineering Principles 1 | Course #8108 | Credits (CTE, AAF-S) | Grades 10-12 | Credits .5
The first in a sequence of “hands on” courses that tie observations and concepts common to a variety of different engineering disciplines in order to develop a better understanding of basic math and science principles used in engineering. By utilizing problem solving skills in a laboratory environment, students will develop skills and attitudes that impact and expand occupational opportunities in engineering. This is a foundation course in the Engineering Pathway.

Engineering Principles 2 | Course #8109 | Credits (CTE, AAF-S) | Grades 10-12 | Credits .5
The second in a sequence of “hands on” courses that ties observations and concepts common to a variety of different engineering disciplines in order to develop a better understanding of basic math and science principles used in engineering. By utilizing problem solving skills in a laboratory environment, students will develop skills that impact and expand occupational opportunities in engineering. 

Physics with Technology (Foundation/Core) | Course #8505 | Credits (CTE, PS) | Grades 10-12 | Credits .5/1.0
Recommended Prerequisite or Corequisite:  Secondary Mathematics 1
The physics/electronics curriculum is divided into four major topics: matter, motion, energy, and circuits. The study is developed around systems and the nature of science and helps students understand the close relationship between electronics and other sciences, characterizing electronics as an extension of physics. Participation in the TSA youth organization may be an integral part of this course.

Robotics 1 | Course #8117 | Credits (CTE, AAF-S) | Grades 10-12 | Credits .5
This is the first in a sequence of courses that prepares individuals with a lab-based, hands-on curriculum combining electrical, mechanical and engineering principles. Students will learn to design, build, program and control robotic devices. A rigorous study and application of basic electronic concepts will include: sources of energy, electrical safety, use and identification basic electrical components, sensors and actuators. Engineering concepts will include: mechanical design, prototype development, design testing, programming, and proper engineering documentation.

Robotics 2 | Course #8119 | Credits (CTE, AAF-S) | Grades 10-12 | Credits .5
The second in a sequence of courses that prepares individuals with a lab-based, hands-on curriculum combining electrical, mechanical, and engineering principles. Students will learn to design, build, program and control robotic devices. A rigorous study and application of electrical concepts will include: sources of energy, electrical safety, use and identification of basic electronic components, sensors and actuators. Engineering concepts will include: mechanical design, prototype development, design testing, programming and proper engineering documentation.
