The civil engineering and architecture students made concrete pumpkins. This was a great opportunity to learn about concrete and to get outside. @tcshuskies @tcslearns #pltw

I want to brag on one of my architecture students. After only a week of learning a new software package, Sketchup, she was able to recreate her house in amazing detail. I am proud of her hard work during this quarantine situation. #trussvillelearns #tcslearns #hthslearns #pltw

Introduction to Engineering Design students created 3D free form pumpkins using the Autodesk Inventor software. Winners received a 3D printed pumpkin trophy. #trussvillelearns #hthslearns #pltw

We 3D scanned Kimberly, one of our engineering senior design students. Then we 3D printed the scan. It was amazing to see how well the print turned out. #trussvillelearns #hthslearnd #pltw

HTHS Computer Integrated Manufacturing students design a robot that can look left and right and decide the best path to travel. Our goal is to continue to add sensors to make our robots “smarter”. #pltw #hthslearns #trussvillelearns

HTHS Intro to Engineering Design students had fun competing in the marshmallow challenge in class competition. #pltw #trussvillelearns #hthslearns

Computer Integrated Manufacturing students programmed their bumper bot robots to back up and turn when it hit an obstacle. These were the final two robots of the 12 that started the double elimination race. Championship race. #hthslearns @tcshuskies #pltw
