Editor's Notes
- NAF has three approved AOE curriculaThese three curricula organize their content differently, but have many elements in common. Foundational instruction includes attention to the engineering design process, principles of engineering, and 3D modeling.
- Each of the three curriculum also includes courses designed around more specialized content such as:RoboticsAero and astronauticsCircuit designSustainable energy generationFabrication and manufacturingGreen architecture and design
- To help teacher teams with (admittedly large amount of) planning required to implement a multi-disciplinary integrated project, NAF provides some sample integrated curriculum units to serve as a starting point These can be found on the NAF curriculum library, under AOE
- Review materials provided - Explain what each unit provides (what is in the download)Explain that units won’t necessarily correspond to a particular semester or set of teachers. Serves as starting point to illustrate possible connections between academic subject areas and the engineering projectTeacher teams can and should adapt units to serve the specific needs and structure of the their academy
- There are two sample unit designed around green building design projects. Green design was intended to serve as the starting point for the projects you’ll hear described in this sessionDescribe green design unit
- Review theme of each subunit
- Located in the industrial corridorand bordered on the west by Southern University, the Might Mississippi River, ExxonMobil and on the east by the BR Metro Airport and Coca Cola Bottling Company.
- AOE has 300 students in grades 9-12.Graduated our 1st official AOE class 2013 with 60 students.54 Students are enrolling in 4 year institutions for engineering, computer science, nursing.4 are enlisting in the military2 are enrolling in community college
- Group collaboration.
- English III - Imagine the world with no access to oil. How would it affect the economy and environment? What would be an alternative fuel and how would this fuel be accessed and utilized? Algebra II and CEA - to establish the elevation of a horizontal plane in order to determine the elevation of various features at a worksite. Set a benchmark by completing a level loop from an existing control point to new benchmark to establish how accurate their measurements are.Chemistry - Students are provided with a water sample from their field site. The students will then use a pH test kit to determine the pH of their water sample. Investigate several factors that may affect water quality.American History - Take a look at structures built many years ago around the community of Scotlandville, look at newer homes in the area and finally compare those homes to those such as the LA House that was seen at LSU. The overall outcome is to show students that our society must continue to change with the times and that we must do what is possible to maintain a healthy environment for future generations. Field Trip to LA House - visited Louisiana House (LA House) on Louisiana State University's campus which is an educational outreach program designed to educate the public in several areas. LA house is connected with the integrated curriculum unit Green Design because it is a display of a home which features comfort, durability, value, convenience, environmental quality, safety and better health. All of these features are enhanced while minimizing energy, water, pollution, waste, damage and loss.
- Students observed energy saving features which aided them in their designs for the Green Energy Project.University students allowed students to shadow them for a day and displayed energy saving designs.
- CH2M Hill provided 7 employees to engage with students prior to beginning the green design. These engineers brought demonstration materials to show the importance of preserving energy in green design. CH2M Hill I designing the sewer system for the entire parish.
- PLTW CEA curriculum provides more lessons than there are days to teach the lessons. Finding time to implement project.
- Last 6-7year communities desire to go greenAs eng. Students we decided to participate in this green movement
- North Miami Senior High’s student engineering team
- Community: Northwest Career and Technical Academy is located in a fast growing community of homes and businesses in the northwest area of Las Vegas, Nevada. It is a magnet school that serves a diverse student body. NWCTA was named a Magnet School of Distinction by the Magnet Schools of America in 2010, 2011, and 2013. The school's population is over 1900 and has a student/teacher ratio of 28/1.School: NWCTA offers ten program areas: Engineering & Design, Hospitality, Mechanical Technology, Culinary Arts, Construction Management, Early Childhood, Teacher Education, Medical Professions, Media Communications, and Biotechnology
- School: NWCTA offers ten program areas: Engineering & Design, Hospitality, Mechanical Technology, Culinary Arts, Construction Management, Early Childhood, Teacher Education, Medical Professions, Media Communications, and Biotechnology
- Students from the Northwest Career & Technical Academy developed a proposal for a LEED-certified addition to the school. To do this the students researched, developed, designed, drew, constructed a model, and presented the final proposal to the school administration and the Academy of Engineering Advisory board. The project incorporated LEED certification and its requirements.
- The students worked in pairs to design a lab that had both computers for the design and a shop for the fabrication of engineering projects.Most students went with a two story design with a computer lab on the top floor and the engineering lab on the first floor. Many designs incorporated a set of stairs enveloped on glass similar to the stairs currently in the school. Outdoor seating areas were popular for student access with computers with wireless capabilities. All designs were drawn on Revit.
- The students enjoyed every aspect of this project from learning about the existing building to the actual design of their own ideas and visions. The application of their math and science skills along with communication and collaboration skills, the students established a solid working relationship with professionals and colleagues.
