It’s Class Project time! For the next three weeks, your students will be immersed in a focused learning project that will be educational, challenging, innovative, and occasionally even a little fun!
Freshmen will be learning about that mysterious red planet… Mars! The Integrated Mars Project will expand their knowledge of the planet Students will use their imagination, along with scientific research, math, and technical applications to create a report that explores the distant planet and what kind of technology would be required to travel to Mars!
The Sophomore Project is all about community service. Representatives from organizations like the Idaho Youth Ranch, the Wyakin Foundation, and Challenged Athletes Foundation will be coming to the school to describe the needs their programs address. Students are also traveling to places like the Boise Rescue Mission, the Diaper Bank, and Astegos to lend a hand. Students will then break into teams to discuss community service needs with their peers, and brainstorm solutions to a particular need through the use of technology. Each team will present their solutions to panels of experts from the community.
For the Junior Project, students are participating in the Toshiba ExploraVision National Science Competition. Students will envision future technologies through collaborative brainstorming and research of current science and tech. In the process, they will use SCRUM methodology to demonstrate problem solving, team-based learning, critical thinking, communication skills, and project management skills. Each team will present their technical innovations to a panel of experts from the community.
The Senior Project is about entrepreneurial development. Student teams will come up with business ideas that will utilize technological skills they have learned here at MTCHS. Teams will come up with a business name, a product, solution, or service, and will create a website or app. Each team will pitch their product to a panel of community business leaders.
