13 Impact Project (13IPP2)
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Nathan Walsh.
13 Impact Project
In this second-semester course, you will create and manage a project of your choice. Using a carefully created brief, you can bring your skills from another subject such as Digital Technologies, Art, Sculpture, Fashion, Electronics, Hard materials, or Stagecraft to work on a project you are passionate about. You will also learn the valuable skills needed to ensure your project is completed on time. From creating a piece of art to designing a book for preschoolers, you will be supported throughout your project and have valuable input from stakeholders too. There are many opportunities for independent and self-directed learning in this course, so you will need to be motivated and keen to work independently. This course will prepare you for further study or a career path in many areas of New Zealand’s innovative community.
