Mr. Bitting's TechWeb
7th Gr. Exploring Technology

What will you find here?

This 7th grade course has undergone a major overhaul over Summer 2010. There a lot of exciting new things that are taking place! You can check out the information here to learn about what it is students are learning in this class, or, if you are a student, you can use some of the resources here to finish activities you did not finish in class!

What is Exploring Technology I?

This class uses one Lab-Volt TechLab Module titled "Introduction to Technology" to get students started off thinking about the world of technology that is all around them.

New for this year is the use of the Engineering by Design curriculum materials. We are using a combination of a few EbD Courses including their Exploring Technology and Packing Up for the Moon. For more information on Engineering by Design, you can visit the ITEEA Website for EbD http://www.iteaconnect.org/EbD/ebd.htm.

"The Engineering byDesign™ Program is
built on the belief that the ingenuity of
children is untapped, unrealized potential
that, when properly motivated, will lead
to the next generation of technologists,
innovators, designers, and engineers."
