Students are presented with an engineering challenge: To design a sustainable guest village within the Saguaro National Park in Arizona. Through four lessons and six associated activities, they study ecological relationships with an emphasis on the Sonoran Desert. They examine species adaptations. They come to appreciate the complexity and balance that supports the exchange of energy and matter within food webs. Then students apply what they have learned about these natural relationships to the study of biomimicry and sustainable design. They study the flight patterns of birds and relate their functional design to aeronautical engineering. A computer simulation model is also incorporated into this unit and students use this program to examine perturbations within a simple ecosystem. The solution rests within the lessons and applications of this unit.

"These lesson plans relate to Indigenous ways of knowing and being through building relationships to the natural world and understanding the past in order to foster healing and resiliency. Some lessons demonstrate how Indigenous knowledge can support a deeper understanding of the land and the changes that are a result of climate change. Others are focused on remembering ancestors, understanding treaties and exploring culture through traditional land-based practices (such as hunting, gathering medicines, weaving, drumming, shelter building, tree tapping, etc.)." *politics *bison, butterflies, caribou *interdependence *drum, flute, elements of art, weaving *creation stories *Indigenous stories *land learning *land based education *gum tea, spruce, maple syrup, salmon, medicine walk *colonialism *seasons *coding *elders *Inuit naming, igloos *resilience *Sacred water *circle & More

Indigenous habitation dates back to 10,000 years ago. By the 1600's, the A’aninin (Gros Ventre) followed the bison herds in this area. More recently, the Nakoda (Assiniboine), Nehiyawak (Plains Cree), Niitsitapi (Blackfoot), Dakota and Lakota (Sioux) also inhabited this grassland area on a seasonal basis

Summary: Students will create an interactive portfolio, using Adobe InDesign. Demonstration of Creativity: Photography, by nature, is creative. Throughout this course, students have demonstrated the use of the photographic triangle, used different lenses, critiqued images, explored photojournalism and product photography, manipulated and adjusted photographs, and much more. Although the main focuses of Photography 20 is to acquire knowledge and develop skills in photography, it’s the creativity that can make a photo stand out. This project allows students to showcase their creative talent in a practical and relevant manner.
