Abstract

Grade Level

9-12

Approximate Time Needed to Complete Unit

10-12 Class periods ~ 2 Weeks

Unit Summary

This unit will detail the chip shortage and the effects that the pandemic and other factors had on the supply chain. This will also set up the need to produce chips locally rather than rely exclusively on chips from overseas. There are cybersecurity connections, buisness connections, and engineering design project connections.
