Career Paths in the Game of Life: Health Sector

Cross Curricular Collab Project: Career Paths in the Game of Life

In the second of a four-part collaboration project series, middle school students at Max Aitken Academy are working with the NB Centres for Excellence for Health. For our expo, students were challenged to engage their maker skills, and create something “to help or comfort” someone, a professional or patient, within the specific health career they are studying. Many chose to design their product using the Glowforge machine or vinyl cutter. Most products will be given to working professionals who have participated in interviews with students, as part of their research for this project.
