Engineering and Technology Pathway Course Descriptions

ACE Academy I - Technical Skills

Open to: 10, 11, 12 -- Full Year = 1.0 credit

Equivalency = Occupational Education or Elective

The ACE Academy, a partnership between education and industry, is designed to prepare students with the knowledge, skills and motivation necessary to pursue architecture, construction, and engineering – related careers.  This course is the first year of a three-year sequence.  Students will learn skills that are aligned with industry standards through innovative constructions-related projects and problems.

Manufacturing I

Open to: 10,11,12 -- Full Year = 1.0 credit

Equivalency = Occupational Education or Elective

Manufacturing I is a “hands on” class that teaches the fundamentals of product development as related to the manufacturing process.  Students will explore a wide variety of process and experience activities in drawing and layout, sheet metal, heat treatment, machining and welding.  Safety education will be emphasized.  Upon successful complete, Manufacturing I may be used a s a prerequisite for ACE II

ACE Academy II

Open to: 11, 12 -- Full Year = 1.0 credit

Equivalency = Occupational Education or Elective

ACE Academy II is the second year of an intensive, applied learning opportunity for students interested in architecture, construction or engineering fields.  Students will have the opportunity to earn college credits and prepare for apprenticeship programs after completion of the ACE II curriculum. Students will also have opportunities to hear guest teachers from Labor and Industry and take field trips to construction and engineer job sites

Manufacturing II

Open to: 11,12 -- Full Year = 1.0 credit

Equivalency = Occupational Education or Elective

Manufacturing II is designed for students who are considering an apprenticeship or career in the manufacturing field.  Knowledge and skills gained in Manufacturing I are further developed with advanced hands-on learning activities in conjunction with technical information.  Safety education is emphasized.

ACE Academy III

Open to: 12-- Full Year = 1.0 credit

Equivalency = Occupational Education or Elective

ACE Academy is the third year of an intensive, applied learning opportunity for students interested in architecture, construction or engineering fields.  Students will have the opportunity to earn college credits and participate in apprenticeship, internship r work-based learning activities.  Students will also have opportunities to hear guest teachers from Labor and Industry and take field trips to construction and engineer job sites

Advanced Placement Computer Science Principles

Open to: 10,11,12 -- Full Year = 1.0 credit

Equivalency = Occupational Education or Elective

This course introduces students to the foundational concepts of computer science and challenges them to explore how computing and technology can impact the world.  Advanced Placement Computer Science Principles will engage students in the internet, programming in Java script, data, and digital information.  Students in this AP courses are required to take the AP examination.

Computer-Aided Design and Drafting I

Open to: 10,11,12-- Full Year = 1.0 credit

Equivalency = Occupational Education or Elective

Computer-Aided Design and Drafting I introduces beginning technical drawing, drafting, sketching, and explores careers in engineering and architecture.  Students learn to use precision-drawing equipment, ho to make common types of drawings, and to utilize the laser and 3D printer to produce models of their designs.

Welding I

Open to: 10,11,12 -- Full Year = 1.0 credit

Equivalency = Occupational Education or Elective

Welding I is designed to give students a basic understanding of oxyacetylene and arc-welding.  Students study related mathematics and blueprint reading and create metal sculpture, ornamental iron work, and metal craft.

Computer-Aided Design and Drafting II

Open to: 11,12-- Full Year = 1.0 credit

Equivalency = Occupational Education or Elective

Computer-Aided Design and Drafting II provides students the opportunity work in the drafting area of their career interest whether engineering, architecture, electrical, or pictorial.  Students in the class learn advanced drawing commands, advanced editing commands, and computer numerical controlled (CNC) equipment.  Students will work intensively utilizing 3D design software.  Students will learn to utilize the laser and 3D printer to produce complex models of their designs.

Welding II

Open to: 11,12 -- Full Year = 1.0 credit

Equivalency = Occupational Education or Elective

Welding II is designed to give students advanced working knowledge and skill in the welding field.  Students study a variety of welding processes such as Dual Shield, MIG and TIG.  Additional instruction may be available in other areas as desired by student.  Students who successfully complete this course will possess sufficient skills to obtain an entry-level welding job.

Architectural Design

Open to: 11,12-- Full Year = 1.0 credit

Equivalency = Occupational Education or Elective

Architectural Design is a one-year class for students who have strong interest in the area of home and building design.  Students study drawings of house plans including detailed floor plans, elevations, sectionals, local codes, and plot plans.  At the conclusion of all design work, a scale model will be made of the design for presentation purposes.
