每週 2-4 小時. One project will be assigned as homework on the first day of class and is to be completed by the last day of class. For this project, students will be asked to build a marble roller coaster using paper. Specific guidelines will be provided. The remaining assignments will typically be finished in class; however, in some instances students may be allotted more time to finish on their own.我們無法翻譯此文，請刷新頁面並再試一次。
課堂經歷
*Please note that this class is offered in three formats: 1-week, 2-weeks, or 6-weeks. Classes are scheduled for an hour and 25 minutes. Class is officially over as scheduled and students are free to leave; however, often students may prefer to stay longer to continuing working or discussing. This is completely optional, but I have allowed an extra 30 minutes in my schedule to accommodate this when needed. Assignments in this course can be completed individually but, are often more fun with partners or groups; therefore, siblings are welcome, encouraged and discounted (first learner $42, additional learners $25). In this course students will be tasked with a variety of challenges requiring critical and creative thinking in order to succeed, and to some extent, competing a little with each other along the way. Each class will begin with some short exercises or questions, such as brainteasers, logic puzzles, etc (about 20-30 minutes), then, the final hour will be spent on a daily building challenge. In these challenges, students will be asked to build something specific with specific and limited supplies, such as a tower or a ship. These supplies are crucial, so be sure to see the supply list and make sure all items are on hand. The requirements and the supply limits require students to think outside of the box in order to achieve their goal. (Think of projects like the egg drop challenge, though we won't be doing that one). Most of these projects will also force students to compete against a clock; however, there are a few exceptions. There are five of these building style projects during the first five days, and one homework project, a roller coaster, that students will work on their own and complete by the final day of class. During the sixth and final day of class, students will first present their roller coaster projects, then will work together to solve a murder mystery (simmer to a dinner party format). All supplies in this course, or reasonable substitutions, are required and necessary. While the list is long, most of the supplies are affordable and often easily found around the house. In addition to the supplies listed, students will also need a dedicated workspace that can be seen during class with the video camera. Using a laptop or tablet is recommended due to portability. A note on multiple learners: multiple learners are welcome but do require separate enrollment. They are, however, allowed to share the screen as long as they are both enrolled. In the event of multiple learners, learners may choose to work individually on projects or together as a team. It is entirely up to them.

其他詳情
父母的引導和規範
Learners will need to cut some cardboard and paper, especially when they are building their roller coasters. That will be done independently, so they may need some supervision or assistance, especially if they are cutting thick cardboard. In class, they shouldn't be cutting much more than paper, but kids always can find new ways to surprise me. Some might also want to use a glue gun for their roller coaster, which they can do if you will let them, and if they are anything like me, they will burn their fingers together, but it sounds worse than it feels. You know your kids better than I do, so if they are accident prone, make sure you're there to watch and help as needed. Everything else is pretty safe and basic. The candle won't be lit, so there is no fire, and hopefully no one chokes on a mini marshmallow or pokes their eye out with a spaghetti noodle.
