... Wrapping it up

You have the rest of today to finish up your field reports and areas of specialization.

When you're done typing up you work, be sure to save it (obviously).

I'll explain the turn-in (UPLOAD) procedure at the end of class.

Enjoy chillaxin' for the weekend ;)

Engineering Career Reports contd.

We're still working on the first 2 parts of the career reports.

Remember to cite your sources!

Engineering Career Reports

First of all, I apologize for the terrible PowerPoint yesterday. I promise to never to give another PLTW presentation that isn't edited first.

Now that we all have chosen our particular fields, we can do a little bit of internet research. The two main points I want you to focus on are the following:

• Description of the field (Field Report) - 1+ page
  
• Areas of specialization - 1+ page

Make sure that you keep track of and cite your internet sources! Don't get all your info from just one source; you should have at least 3 or 4.

Just as a reminder, here again are the assigned career fields:

• Joe F - Mechanical Engineering
• Mike D - Computer Engineering
• Jessica M - Medical Engineering
• Andrew C - Architectural Engineering
• Collin M - Aeronautical Engineering
• Zach S - Nano Engineering
• Eric H - Automobile Engineering
• Chad W - Nuclear Engineering
• Nadia G - Chemical Engineering
• Oshe H - Industrial Engineering
• John B - Structural Engineering
• Jacob W - Civil Engineering
• Dale C - Combat Engineering

I'll give you 2 days (today & tomorrow) to work on this.

Careers in Engineering

We have a brief(ish) PowerPoint on engineering career fields. After we finish the slideshow, I'll be giving you all a few minutes to choose two engineering fields that you'd like to research, one primary field, one alternate field. The written report will ultimately be quite lengthy. Luckily for you, I'll be assigning the report in smaller sections. Trust me, reports are much less mind numbing done in this way.

Get ready for a super-mega-uber-awesome black-and-white PowerPoint! Woot!
