This is a lesson plan designed for sixth grade students to create a podcast outlining highlighting a career in the audio/visual career cluster. By completing this project students are participating in a project that builds many skills in the audio/visual career cluster. The project is done using iPads with the Garage Band App. 

Grant and Russell Kohler, engineers and dairy farmers answer the question: What do technology, engineering, and math have to do with cheese?

Students will recognize that computer science is so important because it can be found in almost every career. Don't wait, start learning how to code today.

Welcome to 2.007! This course is a first subject in engineering design. With your help, this course will be a great learning experience exposing you to interesting material, challenging you to think deeply, and providing skills useful in professional practice. A major element of the course is design of a robot to participate in a challenge that changes from year to year. This year, the theme is cleaning up the planet as inspired by the movie Wall-E.

Develop in Swift is a comprehensive coding offering intended for students in grades 9 and above. The curriculum prepares students for college or a career in app development using the Swift programming language, and is complemented with free online professional learning for educators. Swift is designed for Mac—which supports all major programming languages—making it the ideal device for teaching and learning code.

The Girls Who Build Cameras workshop for high school girls is a one-day, hands-on introduction to camera physics and technology (i.e. how Instagram works!) at the MIT Lincoln Laboratory Beaverworks Center. The workshop includes tearing down old dSLR cameras, building a Raspberry Pi camera, and designing Instagram filters and Photoshop tools. Participants also get to listen to keynote speakers from the camera technology industry, including Kris Clark who engineers space cameras for NASA and MIT Lincoln Laboratory, and Uyanga Tsedev who creates imaging probes to help surgeons find tumors at MIT

Students will learn about various careers related to energy. Students will learn about specific energy careers based on their interests.
