This program is designed to build the following character traits:

Curiosity: This course is great for students interested in learning more about coding, using micro:bits and virtual reality. They will develop new skills that can be used in a variety of projects.
Independence: This course is a combination of synchronous and asynchronous learning where participants will work individually and in small team to complete the assignments. They will develop their skills management skills and responsibility.

Technological Design - TDJ2O, is a course that provides students with a better understanding of the engineering design process through projects done with microcomputer and virtual reality. Students will have the chance to learn about microbit microcomputer, they will use multiple sensors and develop coding to solve common problems. They will also explore, create and program a virtual world using CoSpaces. At the end of the course, the students will take part in an engineering design challenge by creating a virtual world that solves a defined problem.

Although this course has no prerequisites, it is helpful to have taken Exploring Technological Design - TDJ1O prior to enrolling in this course. Students in grade 8 may enroll in this reach-ahead course with approval from their parents and written support from their current principal.

Those who successfully complete the full course will gain a full credit toward their secondary school diploma.
