  • This course uses problem-solving skills to explore creative designs and alternative solutions for problems facing our world today by using a design system approach.  Students will design, analyze, and communicate possible solutions to a variety of environmental and technological problems. Three-dimensional models will be created using solid modeling computer design software.  Possible tools include laser engraving and rapid prototyping.
