Students learn about Computer-Aided Design software and how it is used by designers to save time and resources. Students work through an initial CAD tutorial using Tinkercad.
Students continue using Tinkercad to engage in a redesign of classroom furniture. They learn about the importance of 2D sketching and create their own sketches before working through the next Tinkercad tutorial.
Students are introduced to the concepts of dual or multi-function designs, then use Tinkercad to create an eco-friendly redesign of an object of their choosing.
