David has a conversation with two seniors from the PLTW Engineering program at Wheaton High School (Silver Springs, MD) who share their perspectives on learning, teamwork, and preparing for careers in engineering. Students reflect on the range of experiences they’ve had across courses from digital electronics to engineering design and how those experiences helped them discover their interests. They also discuss the importance of collaboration, problem-solving through iteration, and how hands-on projects and capstone work are helping them build confidence and real-world skills for what comes next.
