Goal

My goal is to expose the students to see possibilities of jobs in the field of STEAM. They can imagine themselves as a pilot of a drone or of an actual plane. Having the flight academy right here in Immokalee makes this a true reality for these students.  

 

What will be done with my students

The students will be given challenges to fly the drone. They will collaborate as a team and see what their "flight plan" could be. Determine the best route and consider other factors as well when planning, such as weather and terrain. 

 

Benefits to my students

Any student who has a passion for something, will find the time and effort needed to learn and practice the skills needed. Having a drone will open their eyes to the possibilities of becoming a pilot. In the 21st century piloting a drone is used for search and rescue, to check weather conditions ahead of a storm, and to see the environment among other possibilities, The drone will allow them to see the possibilities.
