Robertsville Middle School curriculum includes lessons on design and modeling (CAD), circuitry, the science of technology, automation and robotics, and the principles and application flight and space travel.

Using hands on projects to maintain student interest, we integrate teamwork, problem solving, along with every day academic skills like geometry to begin learning attributes needed for real world work.

Two courses are offered: a nine week required Foundations of Technology class, and a full year elective class called Gateway to Technology. Gateway to Technology's cutting-edge program addresses the interest and energy of middle school students, while incorporating national standards in math, science, and technology. GTT is "activity oriented" to show students how technology is used in engineering to solve everyday problems. The five instructional units excite and motivate students to use their imaginations and teach them to be creative and innovative, while gaining the skills the need to develope, produce, and use products and service. Units of study will include: Design and Modeling, The Magic of Electrons, The Science of Technology, Automation and Robotics, and Flight and Space.

Technology courses are taught by Todd Livesay, 245 Robertsville Rd, Oak Ridge, TN 37830. The school phone number is 865-425-9201.
