Using TinkerCAD and digital calipers, create thoughtful designs that fulfill a specific purpose.
Beginner
In this course, we will explore the intersection of creativity, design, and functionality. Using TinkerCAD and digital calipers, students will create designs that fulfill a specific purpose. It could be anything from a form-fitting case to hold your memory card to a mounted cup holder for your crowded desk. Using 3D printers, we will bring your designs to life. Through this course, we will help students develop significant foundational skills in design and engineering.
