Tech 8
Students work in pairs at Modules that connect Technology with Life. Each module is a rotation of 7 school days with a makeup
day (Day 8). This class is highly dependent on students working together in pairs and solving problems. We have 18 modules
including Applied Physics, Audio Broadcasting, Natural Disasters, Engineering Bridges, Flight, and Weather. Students will
complete approximately 10 modules during the semester. This past summer all the modules were updated and we replaced 4
modules with new topics. [Class Syllabus]
