About me |
Greetings,
My name is Brian Jernigan and I am the technology teacher here at Howard High School. My goal is to introduce real world work situations to students, and to create an environment that challenges them. Engineering is the application of scientific and technical knowledge to solve human problems. Engineers use imagination, judgment and reasoning to apply science, technology, art, mathematics, and practical experience. The result is the design, production, and operation of useful objects or processes. I want students to understand the concepts deadlines, teamwork, constraints, process, and creative thinking. I often hear from my students that my class is too hard, not because of the work, but because of the deadlines and independent, creative thinking that I encourage. I don’t give out all the answers, I allow students to discover their own solutions through research and trial and error. My goal is to challenge students and to raise the bar of expectations and help them discover things about themselves! |
