Week 6: Continuing with Tinkercad

This week we will be using our CAD software to create and model 3D images! Tinkercad is a free, online 3D modeling program that runs in a web browser, known for its simplicity and ease of use. It can be used for creating 3D designs, electronics, and coding. It's used by teachers, kids, hobbyists, and designers to imagine, design, and make anything! This will be a software we will continue to use for the rest of the semester to create our own 3D models and designs of our concepts and ideas.
 Objectives:
​
Students will...
  • ​Identify and use a deliberate design process for generating ideas, testing theories, creating innovative artifacts or solving authentic problems.
  • Select and use digital tools to plan and manage a design process that considers design constraints and calculated risks.
  • Develop, test and refine prototypes as part of a cyclical design process. 
  • Exhibit a tolerance for ambiguity, perseverance and the capacity to work with open-ended problems.
  • Formulate problem definitions suited for technology-assisted methods such as data analysis, abstract models and algorithmic thinking in exploring and finding solutions.
  • Break problems into component parts, extract key information, and develop descriptive models to understand complex systems or facilitate problem-solving.
