Other Details
Supply List
Learners will need a 2x2 cube. Rubik's brand cubes can be found at local toy stores or big box retailers, or speed cubes can be purchased at specialty stores or online. In my experience, I have found that speed cubes perform much better and are generally less expensive than the official Rubik's brand cubes, however, either will work for this course.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
