2 files available upon enrollmentStudents will need the: 3Dux/ Design Architecture Set: Iconic Home It can be found here: https://www.3duxdesign.com/products/modhaus-combo-kit These kits can be used over and over to create a variety of projects. Kits can be combined with other 3Dux/design modeling sets to create larger and more complex structures. (The connectors are engineered to fit most single-ply cardboard so if you need more pieces or different shapes, just re-purpose a box!) • Paint or marker to color the Mid-Century Modern house. (optional) • Decorative crafts or items to add to the exterior of the Mid-century Modern House house. (optional)
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
The concept of Mid-Century Modern Architecture will be viewed, discussed and used for inspiration during this class meeting. I will not be showing, discussing or referencing any controversial works. Sometimes when kids learn about a topic and become interested they want to do their own further research and may come across more graphic drawings or images if they have unchaperoned access to the internet.
