Exploratory Technology
The Exploratory Technology course is meant to introduce students to the various industrial technology courses that we offer here at Pathfinder. The course is a semester long (18 weeks) and is offered both in the Fall and Spring. Students in Exploratory Technology will learn about drafting, Auto-CAD, and structural engineering. The Exploratory Technology course is just as the title explains: "exploratory". The course will introduce students to the Industrial Arts program, and ultimately help them decide if they would like to take additional courses in the program. (Wood-shop, Design Tech, Architectural Design, Robotics, etc.)
