In this fast paced design and building challenge students will work as a team to design and create either portions of or a completely sustainable city. Learners also agree to complete their portion of the design and do their best to contribute as a team. Please note learners should already have experience with TinkerCAD and completed the "Getting Started With TinkerCAD" course for their age level. This course is great for students who love building and creating and are interested in sustainable cities. Learners who love TinkerCAD, Minecraft, Roblox, or are interested in Engineering will also enjoy the challenge teamwork needed to be successful in this challenge. A 3D printer is not necessary A rough outline for the challenge: Day 1: Meet the other members of the team, choose a team name and decide to challenge at the basic level (design which portions of a sustainable city to build) or the advanced level (design the whole base). Learn about sustainable living and what is needed for a city to be self sustaining. Day 2: Continue brainstorming and assign jobs for each learner to help complete the project Day 3: Build using TinkerCAD Day 4: Build and revise any plans that are not working and combine into one project to see the base in it's complete form.
Learning Goals
Students will work as a team on a high level engineering project to create all or a portion of a sustainable city from start to finish. As a team the learners will decide which level of the challenge to complete and will use teamwork to complete the challenge in the alloted time.
