Career & Technology 7
Mrs. Tonya Nugent (Room A-2)
What is this class about?
Students are introduced to career opportunities available as described in the 16 Career Clusters and explore their career interests by creating their own animation of a career while learning about time management, organization and problem solving. Next, students explore their digital life and how their footprint will leave a lasting impression. Students will also become “Mythbusters” by creating and editing digital images to bust a science myth. Lastly, students will work collaboratively to design their own Mobile App!
