Expect to find more information here as
the area schools let us know about all the exciting technology-related
programs they offer.
If you represent a school with either a program listed here or
another technology-related program, please let us know what information
you would like to have on the web site or any
corrections/additions/deletions by contacting our WebMaster.
Math/Science/Technology
A math/science/technology course integrates math, science, and technology
concepts in a project-based format. Students work on hands-on projects
that incorporate theoretical math and science concepts in to a tangible
product. Sample projects involve the design and testing of a
projectile launcher, an airplane wing, and a miniature golf course.
Currently, Dover, Pawling, Spackenkill, and Webutuk High Schools are
offering MST courses.
Math/Art/Technology
A math/art/technology course integrates math, art, and technology concepts
in a project-based format. Students work on hands-on projects that
incorporate math and art concepts in to a tangible product. A sample
project involves 3-D graphical design. Currently, Dover High School is
offering a MAT course.
Pre-engineering
A pre-engineering program involves defining a series of courses to prepare
students for entry in to technology or engineering programs. This may include a
cluster of pre-existing courses or an offering of courses such as Principles
of Engineering I and II. Many regional high schools offer a
pre-engineering type program. The articulation agreements that
high schools have with their community college varies
significantly.
Schools that are offering these types of courses
include Arlington, John Jay, and Ketcham High Schools.
