Vehicle rapair class

Vehicle Repair Class

I would add a class that teaches students how to reconstruct old and broken down vehicles. The class would meet at any time during the day but it would be a double period. The students would study the different parts of vehicles and for major exams they will reconstruct parts of a car. It would look like an auto body shop, it would feel like an open area, it would be loud at times when the students are working. To show what the students learned, for the final exam they will reconstruct a broken down car.

• You're only as old as you think you are. Or in this case, as old as a computer algorithm thinks you are.
• Microsoft has created a website that tells you how old you look just by analyzing your photo.
• Sometimes it's dead on. Other times it's hilariously, outrageously wrong.
