I signed up for GeorgiaCollege411.org and took the Career Interest Profiler. I think agree with the results I got.

What is a CTSO
Career technology student organization.
Color for TSA
Colors: Blue, white, and scarlet.
Go back and review the CTSO webinar video quiz
Go back and look at the information about the history of technology – know your time periods and definitions from the assignment titled “Designing your vocabulary words.”
- Paleolithic Age: the Old Stone Age, occurred between 500,000 BC and 10,000 BC and is marked by improvements to diet and security allowing the population to grow.
- Mesolithic Age: the Middle Stone Age, occurred between 10,000 BC and 4,000 BC and is marked by the domestication of animals and agriculture.
- Neolithic Age: the New Stone Age, occurred between 4,000 BC and 2,300 BC and is marked by specialization, division of labor, and the use of math and documentation of concepts.
- Bronze Age: the architectural period that includes combining copper and tin to produce bronze; occurred between 2,300 BC and 700 BC.
- Iron Age: the architectural period marked by the use of iron and steel; occurred between 700 BC and 450 AD.
- Middle Ages: the architectural period after the Roman Empire; divided into Early Middle Ages, High Middle Ages, and Late Middle Ages; occurred between 450 AD and 1,400 AD and marked by the development of tools of war.
- Renaissance: the architectural period marked by the revival of classical influence and the sharing of ideas; occurred between 1,400 AD and 1,750 AD.
- Industrial Age: the architectural period marked by the first use of complex machinery, factories and urbanization, occurring between 1,750 AD and 1,950 AD.
- Information Age: the architectural period marked by information sharing, gathering, manipulation, and retrieval; occurred between 1,950 AD and present.
Know what the purpose of an engineer’s design notebook is (format, design, etc.)
Edmodo post about the Engineering Design Notebook
Architectural scale measurements
An architect uses scale measurements to draw out designs that are smaller but represent a larger object.
Metric system conversions
Engineering Lettered
All letters capitalized, typically in 1/8 size.
Scale Factor
A system used so that smaller items can symbolize larger ones and vice versa. In engineering, mainly smaller symbolizing larger.
Understand what drafting is
Drafting is drawing a "pre-plan" that shows what is expected to be built.
Parametric/Surface modeling
Using CAD to display details and information about an object.
Orthographic/Multi – View Drawing
Multiview drawings are interpretations of an object that show different sides. Typically the front, top, and side.
Maker Movement
Know the difference between wire frame models, surface, and solid models
In order from most to least complex solid, surface, and wire frame models show details about the object that is being built.
