Project Lead the Way?

The Oconomowoc Area School District is looking at incorporating Project Lead the Way into our cirriculum and our lead teacher wanted to know how many teams/high schools have already done so with theirs?

Thanks
Ricky

Part of the curriculum for Project Lead The Way is developed here at RIT. The FIRST team doesn't have too much interaction with the PLTW group but we have stolen the mailing list for team development purposes.

Us here in Hammond have it for the first time ever this year. Our robotics team is made up of 4 feeder schools, and one of them has the PLTW program, we will be expanding to the others next year (hopefully). In the one school that has the program, 4 members of the Hammond Robotics team are enrolled in the program myself included. I think it is an excellent program, and I believe (from my class experience) that FIRST participants benefit the most from the PLTW program. If you want some more info or to get on our PLTW message board Ricky, send me an e-mail, and I will help you or your school in any way I can.

Kokomo High School, the highschool of team 45 has Project Lead the Way, and it's a very good program. It isnt really incorportated with the TechnoKats, but many students take the classes, and one of the teacher sponsers teach some classes for it.

Project Lead the Way is a pre-engineering program for high schools. It provides a complete set of courses culminating in a senior design project. Check out their website .

High Tech has been integrating the PLTW program starting with my class. So far its going pretty well, except for some small snags at first. I recommend it.

Random Useless Trivia:
One of the founding high schools for PLTW was also one of the original FIRST teams in 1992.
