ENGINEERING LAB - HACKING IT!

Join us as we hack different electronics and learn about he components that make them work!  Students will learn how to solder, learn about resistors, capacitors, switches, l.e.d, and more as we work on soldering projects and modify small electronic devices by adding switches, lights, potentiometers and more.  Great for any budding engineer and those curious about soldering and electronics.​

​

ENGINEERING LAB - UPCYCLED ENGINEERING

Do your kids love taking apart everything in your house?  Asking you 100's of questions on how it works?  This class is for them!  We are taking apart things such as computers, monitors, toys, toasters and other electronics.  We are learning what each component does from capacitors to diodes and then we are making things out of them such as a gravity powered car and a clock!  Sign up for this class if you value your electronics at home!​

​

DRONES, ROBOTICS AND VR

Experience the technology that is shaping our future! Students will get to fly drones through obstacle courses, build and program robots and see how VR is changing education and the world around us! This fun and exciting class will open your eyes to the technologies of the future! (*note- VR can cause dizziness in students that are sensitive to visual digital movement)​

​

INTRO TO 3D PRINTING

We are learning about 3d printing and design!  Students will be designing in Tinkercad and then we will be 3d printing them out on our small fleet of 3d printers!  We are going through proper design techniques and students will be designing multiple take home projects.  Note- students will be designing on a computer 99% of the time and need to know how to use a computer mouse and be familiar with a keyboard.

​

3D PRINTING AND DESIGN 2

Got the hang of 3d printing and want to learn more design techniques? We will be getting into multiple part design, joint designs, and integrating 3d printing with functional objects such as bearings.  We will be going through different projects during the week and students will be able to take home their projects.​

​

ROBOTICS W/ARDUINO

Dive into the world of Arduino, an open source microcontroller capable of creating some amazing creations! Learn how to use the software and hardware to control things such as lights or use sensors to activate a motor.   The sky is the limit!  Each student will receive their own Arduino kit to take home.
