3D Digital Art Design & Modeling W/ Tinker CAD - Spring Break Camp (5 Days)

Welcome to the world of 3D Digital Art: Design and Modeling with TinkerCAD! This course is designed to introduce kids in grades 4-10 to the exciting world of 3D design and architecture. In this program, you will learn how to dream, design, and create your own unique 3D objects, buildings, and even basic characters.

Over the course of four days, you will learn the basics of 3D design and architecture with a focus on designing real-world objects. You will be using TinkerCAD software, which is a user-friendly 3D design tool that is perfect for beginners. You will also work together with other students to engineer cool three-dimensional cityscapes, devices, or gadgets.

This class is designed with a student-centered learning approach with collaborative projects, which means that you will have plenty of opportunities to interact with both the teacher and your peers. We believe that the best way to learn is by doing, and that's why we emphasize hands-on, experiential learning. You will have the chance to work on individual and group projects, which will help you develop your design and problem-solving skills.

Throughout the course, you will learn how to construct detailed 3D images, understand sophisticated software tools like TinkerCAD, and gain an understanding of the principles of creating dynamic and interesting 3D images. You will also learn the concepts of scope, scale, and functionality in design, which will help you create designs that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also practical and functional.

Our class is structured around four one-hour-55-minute long class meetings, which will provide you with ample time to learn, practice, and collaborate with others. Each class will consist of a mix of lecture, games, slides, and discussion. There is no prior experience or knowledge required for this course, and all skill levels are welcome.
