DESIGN & MODELING
Course Code: KTV008 (semester-long)
Grade: 7th
Design and Modeling (DM) provides students opportunities to apply the design
process to creatively solve problems. Students are introduced to a problem in the
first activity and are asked to make connections to the problem throughout subsequent lessons. Students learn and utilize methods for communicating design ideas
through sketches, solid models, and mathematical models. Students will understand how models can be simulated to represent an authentic situation and generate data for further analysis and observations. Students work in teams to identify
design requirements, research the topic, and engage stakeholders. Teams design a
toy or game for a child with cerebral palsy, fabricate and test it, and make necessary
modifications to optimize the design solution.
MEDICAL DETECTIVES
Course Code: KTV011 (semester-long)
Grade: 8th
In the Medical Detectives (MD) course, students play the role of real-life medical detectives as they analyze genetic testing results to diagnose disease and study DNA
evidence found at a “crime scene.” They solve medical mysteries through hands-on
projects and labs, investigate how to measure and interpret vital signs, and learn
how the systems of the human body work together to maintain mental health.
GREEN ARCHITECTURE
Course Code: KTV014 (semester-long)
Grade: 8th
In Green Architecture, students learn how to apply concepts to the fields of architecture and construction by exploring dimensioning, measuring, and sustainability
as they design affordable housing units using 3D architectural design software.
