Course Description
Welcome to Introduction to Engineering Design! I am pleased to have your student enrolled in my class and look forward to an exciting school year.
The major focus of the IED course is to expose students to the design process, research and analysis, teamwork, communication methods, global and human impacts, engineering standards and technical documentation. Students use 3D solid modeling design software to help them design solutions to solve proposed problems and learn how to document their work and communicate solutions to peers and members of the professional community.
This career technical education (CTE) class teaches skills and qualities needed to succeed in the engineering field. I will be using a variety of instructional methods including group projects and activities, lecture and discussion that integrate both academic and CTE standards
Course Objectives
Training occurs through classroom instruction and participation in shop/lab environments. Focus is on experiential learning and developmentally appropriate practices. The curriculum develops such critical workplace skills as communication and interpersonal skills, personal and professional growth, critical thinking, creative problem-solving, strong academic skills, safety/health, and an understanding of the role of technology. These skills are central in preparing all students for effective, successful careers.
