Technology : Technology II

Instructor: McPherson

Welcome Back! I am excited about the changes in the technology program. I will get to see you more often during the week and over a longer period of time! :-)

The first half of this course we will be focusing on exploring webpage design. The second half we will learn to build and program robots!

I look forward to the time we get to spend together. If you have any suggestions for ways to make this webpage more useful for you, please let me know.
