K-12 STEAMM EDUCATION PROGRAMS

 This course provides the student with an introduction to industrial fabrication from the viewpoint of mechanical technology.  

Successful completion of the course will provide the student with the benefits, limitations, and applications of different machine tools and environmentally friendly engineering materials for product manufacturing and fabrication. Adaptability of machinery to a variety of manufacturing processes is studied.  

* Students completing  MFC 2 with a grade B or better will receive 3 college credits from Roger Williams University in Manufacturing. 

 High school youth will research world issues including but not limited to; poverty, alternative fuels and power, environmentally friendly transportation, and sustainable agriculture. Students will develop hands on skills in electro-mechanical fabrication, prototyping, precision measurement, 3 D modeling and product analysis while developing products to better mankind.  

* Students completing MFC with a grade B or better will receive 3 college credits from Roger Williams University in Manufacturing.  

 The Second session of MFC will provide high school youth with advanced skills in creating environmentally friendly mechanisms to be used in manufacturing fields as well as consumer product applications. Students will develop skills in advanced mathematics and Finite Element Analysis for viability studies and debugging.  

* Students completing  MFC 2 with a grade B or better will receive 3 college credits from Roger Williams University in Manufacturing. 

 This course provides an operational experience in the development of innovative and realistic engineered products. Design concepts and techniques are introduced, and the student's design ability is developed in a design or feasibility study chosen to emphasize ingenuity and provide wide coverage of engineering and business topics.  

* Students completing  CDE with a grade B or better will receive 3 college credits from Roger Williams University in Engineering/Technology. 

 This workforce development program runs through the academic year & 6-7 weeks in the summer. TAP services over 160 teens annually. This program provides youth with multiple certifications. In addition, students develop hands on skills in carpentry, construction, plumbing, electrical (A/C & D/C), fabrication of solar and wind power systems, framing, metal working, plastic, glass and metals welding, torch and plasma cutting and more to assist in the fabrication of a variety of machines, structures, tiny homes, go karts, drones, etc.

* Students completing  TAP with a grade B or better will receive 3 college credits from Roger Williams University in Engineering/Technology. 

 Follow in the footsteps of some of the greatest minds in history.  DaVinci, Newton, and Einstein have nothing on you!  Join us as we experiment and build systems and simple machines that can send small items (or maybe even a classmate!) FLYING. 

 If you like magic, if you want to make chemicals react in crazy ways, if you want to create wild potions that explode, this is the class for you! We will be making things bubble, disappear and fly up into the sky. Join us as we perform some awesome Weird Science experiments! 

 In this program, youth learn to develop skills in 3D design, prototype modeling,  basic DC electronics, metal and plastic welding, forming, cutting and fabrication while building hydro, wind, electric and solar electric go-carts, dune buggies, drag racer, dirt bikes, hoover crafts, submersible single maned submarines, eco- powered motorboats and much more. And when they're done... let the races begin! On air, land or water! 

 This is the gardening program of the future. Students explore the world of agriculture, aquaculture, marine biology and earth science while designing and building a state of the art aqua or hydroponics food production system.
