Galt science students try out computer-aided design

This spring 37 students from Alexander Galt Regional High School’s (AGRHS) level 5 science enrichment program were introduced to designing, fabricating and assembling objects as part of a special project at Lennoxville Vocational Training Centre (LVTC). The project was created by François Mercier, a teacher dedicated to student learning and success who has taught in the Machining Techniques program at LVTC for almost 30 years. During the five sessions, which took place in the technical drawing classroom and the Machining shop at LVTC during March, April and May 2018, the students were able to put their theoretical knowledge into practice using machinery from the LVTC to create useful, tangible objects.
