Product Design

Posted on February 26, 2023

Product Design: The Bridge between Art and STEM
Grade Levels: 9-12
Term: Semester
Credits: .5
Course name changed from “Design Thinking” after the 2021-22 school year.
In this course, students will create diverse projects that are both fun and informative. During the creative process, students will follow the Design Thinking Process, an engineering method of problem-solving. Students begin with ideas, work through sketches, prototypes, and testing to create projects that have real-world applications. They are also challenged to explore new ideas and pathways to work through their projects. While this course has its basis in engineering, it does not replace the IED course that is part of the Project Lead the Way program.

In a nutshell:
What’s Wrong?
What solutions do we have?
Let’s design it!
Let’s 3d print it!
Lets make it cooler!
Lets market it!

In addition to the above, All digital arts students have free access to the entire Adobe Creative Suite both in school and on personal devices.
