Curriculum DevelopmentLesson
Written By Tamara Moore

Students will use components of the Engineering Design Process to create sketches of potential microchips for a gaming controller. They will sketch their designs on paper and then transfer them to AutoCAD, ensuring they follow industry standards. Throughout the lesson, students will engage in group discussions, brainstorming sessions, and hands-on activities to develop their technical drawing skills. The lesson concludes with students submitting their completed drawings and participating in a reflective discussion on their learning experience.
