What Is IDEA?
In IDEA class we use certain tools in the innovation center such as the laser which can cut things precisely and efficiently, vinyl cutter, 3D Printer, CNC Mill and the CNC Router. We use these tools for our projects done in the class, for example for the final project we build a clock by using our knowledge and the tools that we learned how to use in the unit to create it. We also can use these skills later on in life for career paths. This class is very useful for thinking and it stimulates the brain for productive work. IDEA is a class where you can take things from your notebook and put them into the real world which is really cool because then if you know what you are doing you can use these useful skills in the future and these skills can also help you become a well rounded and knowledgeable person. Very Class Period we will do a journal entry where you can put the pictures of what you worked on for the class period and then you write about what you did and how it went and ten these will be logged for your grades. This is also where you start your ideas to create them in the innovation center.
