A class for beginner ELEMENTARY schoolers (entering grades 4 - 6) to learn how to use Tinkercad software, 3d print and laser cut. This is the intro course that sets the stage for all the other higher level Design Tech courses we offer. The class includes direct instruction on the basics of tools in software and equipment while developing grade-appropriate projects that have a mix of tight parameters and open-ended creative input. By the end of this class, students should have confidence in the process of creating Tinkercad designs and outputting them to 3d print and laser cutting. Participants in this class should have basic computer navigation skills before joining.
