Students
enrolled in Technology Education at Westlake High School are challenged
to solve a variety of technological problems. Organized into engineering
teams and given the opportunity to apply problem solving skills to formulate
a solution, students focus on the integration of math, science, and engineering
principles. A wide variety of technologies ranging from industrial machines
to computer aided design and analysis software enable
the students to solve the challenge. Students apply their knowledge and
perform tasks representative of technology based careers, including engineers,
technicians, and trades.
