  1. 21st Century Technology Engineering Laboratories What could they look like? • Dr. Ray McCarthyNortheastern University • ray.mccarthy.masstec@gmail.com • Mr.TomFratto • thomas.fratto@wpsk12.org • Galvin Middle School, Wakefield, Ma

  2. Think-Pair-Share What are the key elements for a modern TE/E Lab? What is needed for Tooling? What is needed for Safety?

  3. 21st Century • Lab Concept map it! • Tooling? • Focus • Understandings Middle School or High School?

  4. Philosophy > Concepts > Frameworks > Learning Experiences > Hands-on, Minds-on Components • Why?
