Engineering Principles….
Engineering Principles is a contextual-based learning course where students explore a variety of technologies as they develop valuable skills. Using a team-based approach, this course is designed for most students to help them achieve an understanding of fundamental engineering subjects. Students build skills for success through, research, experiments and challenges that incorporate Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) concepts. Engineering Principles introduces students to a variety of different technologies. Students begin this course, by researching engineering careers and the design process. 
In the Precision Measurements unit, students use a range of tools and mathematics to attain accurate measurements. These fundamental skills will be useful in virtually any career path. The Electrical Circuits unit guides students through experiments designed to provide an understanding of electricity, electrical components, and circuits. As they study Alternative Energy students perform experiments about wind, solar, and fuel cell technologies. They will construct a variety of simple and complex mechanical circuits in the Mechanisms unit, and apply the physics concepts used in those systems. The Fluid Systems unit has experiments that demonstrate how different pneumatic devices operate and can be combined into systems to do work. The more complex circuits will demonstrate how different technologies can be combined.
