The GTT curriculum provides project-based learning—a hands-on approach--that is exciting and fun for the full-range of students in today’s grade 6 – 8 classrooms and that relates technology to students’ daily lives. It also promotes communication and collaboration by emphasizing a teaming approach in the instructional units. This approach utilizes the strengths of each team member to accomplish the goals of the project, while offering students learning challenges at all ability levels.
The mathematics, science, and technology integrated GTT program helps students develop and hone skills in middle school that enable them to enter the high school program with foundation knowledge and skills for success in pre-engineering. Although not intended as an introduction to the Project Lead The Way® pre-engineering high school program, many schools report improved interest in the high school program because of GTT.Back to Cherokee's Home Page
