Re: Project Lead The Way!

I teach PLTW DDP and next year will be teaching Civil Eng. And Arch class...

I love teaching DDP, it is a great class and can give you valueable experience.. The point of the class is not to train you on a CAD program.. The point is to train you mind to problem solve, brainstorm, and use you imagination. (think outside the box)

Like any class the course can depend on how good a job the teacher does at inspiring the students.

Also
Many of my students did not select the course and were just placed in the class, but now I have a number of students really interested in a tech ed. and want to persue further options. If they never had the chance then who knows what they would have ended up doing.

I also have students that arnt your typical PLTW students. Students with 3rd and 4th grade reading levels who excel with CAD and have now found something that they can do which puts them on a level with their peers.
