Recommended Ages: 4th-12th grades Cost: $135 (Members), $150 (Nonmembers) CAD & 3D Print Lab is a hands-on, beginner-friendly enrichment experience where students explore the world of digital design and 3D printing. Using TinkerCAD, students will learn the fundamentals of computer-aided design and bring their creations to life through 3D printing. Over the course of the session, students will complete two to three individual printed projects, building their skills and confidence along the way. The course culminates in an exciting group project where each student designs and prints their own landmark to assemble into a collaborative model city diorama. No experience is needed to take this class, and all materials are provided. Meet the program instructor: Jess Newsom Ms. Jess founded Inventors Lab to share her love and passion for working with students of all ages and backgrounds to develop their skills in STEM-related topics. Jess graduated with her B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Cal Poly Pomona where she also was actively involved in creating interactive labs in virtual reality (VR) for the biology department, competing with the Human-Powered Vehicle project team and hosting workshops on how to create aquaponics systems. She has spent the last nine years teaching K-12 robotics while running a center in California, and she has coached VEX Robotics competition teams at the middle school and high school levels. Outside of STEM-related activities, she spends her time in her workshop creating art, developing her own video games, crocheting cute animals, knitting garments and reading. Jess is passionate about sharing her knowledge with others and inspiring them to be creative and tackle cool projects.By purchasing a ticket to this event, you are agreeing to our participant release, participant policies, and social contract.Sign in or register today to become a member of Learning Lab Wichita and receive discounted program and event opportunities!
