Project Lead the Way
|
With tough new graduation requirements in math and science, Michigan students need to know more of these subjects than ever. To help create engaging ways of learning the new material, Project Lead the Way, hosted in Michigan by EMU’s College of Technology, creates lessons where students are using math, science and technology skills to create new products.
Working in teams, students take on projects such as designing an automobile starting system triggered by a cell phone, or a moisture-sensing system that closes the window when it rains.
The implementation of Project Lead the Way has been supported by local businesses and organizations, and classes can be taken for both high school and college credit.
