Course Description:
Electronic devices are everywhere in modern life and business, and, as a result, opportunities abound for any who should master the knowledge and skills to design, alter, repair, and construct them. This course allows students to advance their application of scientific theories and take a systems approach to working with semiconductor devices, digital components, and logic circuits. They also study integrated circuits used in computers, amplifiers, media equipment, and other devices. Contextual instruction and student participation in co-curricular career and technical student organization (CTSO) activities will develop leadership, interpersonal, and career skills. High-quality work-based learning (HQWBL) will provide experiential learning opportunities related to students' career goals and/or interests, integrated with instruction, and performed in partnership with local businesses and organizations.
