What Most Schools Don’t Teach

5. Technology and
Engineering understand, and
The capacity to use,
Literacy
evaluate technology as well as to
understand technological principles and
strategies needed to develop solutions and
achieve goals.
Systems Thinking
Co-relate programming with other math and
science disciplines to encourage systems
thinking and the ability to see
connections between the parts that
interact to form a whole. Students are
learning how to test, debug, reverse
engineer, and breakdown problems.

8. “By 2018 there will be 3x as many CS
and Engineering jobs as applicants.
This goes beyond CS and Engineering.
Learning CS and Engineering teaches
problem solving skills, new ways of
breaking down complex scenarios, and a
means to build something tangible in
our software and mechanical driven
age.”

such modern machines as a 3D
printer that can use computer
assisted designs to turn out
working thermoplastic models
ranging from new mechanical
inventions to chess pieces. A
laser cutter engraver, fast
becoming a standard in
industrial shops nationwide,
can do its work from computer
generated designs on objects
up to 2 x 3 feet.”
