Computer Science Pathway Schools participating in this pathway will integrate the arts into computational thinking and computer science activities. In elementary schools, these activities often feature novel approaches to problem solving to help students build their computational thinking skills. In middle schools, students are introduced to core computing and coding concepts, so they see computing as a method for representing and solving problems and begin to use technology to enhance their learning. In high schools, students enroll in computer science courses where they learn to program in order to produce, innovate, or solve problems, and to understand how computing can be a creative experience. Engineering Pathway Schools participating in this pathway will integrate the arts into activities that engage students in the Engineering Design Process and challenge them to solve interdisciplinary STEM problems. In elementary schools, these activities should help students develop an understanding of engineering as a profession, and engage them in the design process to solve problems. In middle schools, engineering students design and conduct experiments, analyze and interpret data, build prototypes, and learn the engineering tools and techniques. In high schools, students enroll in engineering pathway courses where they engage in engineering design and systems thinking and explore different fields of engineering. Invention and Entrepreneurship Schools participating in this pathway will integrate the arts into activities in which students become creators, innovators, and marketers as they engage in design thinking to produce a product or a process that meets a need in their community. This pathway allows students to engage in experiences that focus on engineering, social science and/or entrepreneurship, and to have the opportunity to apply their knowledge to real life situations. Students at all grades identify problems/needs in their community, create an invention to solve that problem, and market their product to a public audience through Georgia Tech’s K-12 InVenture program.
