Course Outline
This course is essentially a practical course focusing on real-life challenges.
The program combines mechanics, electronics and computer programming and design in a theoretical and practical course. Students learn basic aspects of electronics and will work on projects to develop techniques and products that satisfy human needs.
Students will develop skills in all areas and use them to create self-regulating systems and autonomous robots.
This course is essentially a practical course focusing on real‐life contexts. Students apply a design process to research and present information about materials, engineering principles, concepts and ideas, and design proposals.
They develop engineering technology skills in planning and implementing a process to manipulate tools and machines to produce a prototype of their designed solution.
