Ideas for Engineering Course

I have basically gained the knowledge through FIRST of all my highschool's engineering classes offer, courses such as CAD I and II are basically a waste of time after participating in FIRST for 3 years. I have talked to the engineering teacher and she has suggested a course called Engineering Graphics which involves inventor, but I am not sure to what detail (it could just be an introductory course), because I know the basics of creating parts and assemblies, so this could just be an easy A.

That being said I need your ideas for this independant study. Advancing to a college level course is not an option due to scheduling, so I need something to do for the class and I figured who would be able to tell me more about learning to be an engineer than the FIRST community. I would like to do something involving inventor, or solid works (although I don't think the school has it) possibly learning more about parametric design...I'm totally open to suggestions, remember no idea is a bad idea.

Thanks for the help,
Michael
