STEM Engineering
In this class, we’ll focus on developing two essential skills for any engineer:
Troubleshooting
You’ll learn how to:
- Identify problems systematically
- Break down complex systems into manageable parts
- Use tools and techniques to diagnose issues
- Apply solutions and test their effectiveness
Logical Thinking & Problem Solving
We’ll strengthen your ability to:
- Think critically and analytically
- Approach problems with structured reasoning
- Collaborate and communicate solutions effectively
- Reflect on outcomes and improve designs
Throughout the year, we’ll work on hands-on projects, real-world challenges, and team-based activities that will help you grow as thinkers, creators, and future engineers.
I’m looking forward to learning alongside you and seeing the amazing things you’ll build and solve. Let’s make this a year of innovation, curiosity, and growth!
About Mr. Keylon
I graduated from Middle Tennessee State University in 1995 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology, with an emphasis in Microbiology. I later earned a Master Degree in Instructional Leadership and an Administrative License from Lincoln Memorial University. In addition to my academic background, I hold instructional certifications in Siemens, NMIS, and NC3.
Before transitioning into education, I spent over 20 years in the workforce across several industries—including tier-one automotive manufacturing, the medical field, and real estate. I bring this real-world experience into the classroom to help students understand how their education connects to practical, high-demand careers.
My goal is to support each student as they grow into thoughtful, capable contributors to society—regardless of the path they choose. I encourage students to see challenges not as roadblocks, but as opportunities to think critically, evaluate, and develop logical solutions. In our classroom, perseverance and problem-solving are key parts of the learning process. Students are encouraged to explore different approaches, learn from missteps, and continuously refine their work.
Watching students overcome obstacles and take pride in what they’ve achieved—even in the most complex projects—is one of the most rewarding parts of teaching here at Central Magnet.
