Python is wildly popular these days and found in the smallest to largest machines.

• We’ll cover basics like the print statement, variables, if then-else and for loops.

• Learn to write and run Python code in your browser.

• Browser coding means that you can join in without installing software.

• You'll want to bring your computer for this with Wifi. If you don't have a computer, you can always watch and learn.

This class introduces the student to the concepts and practices of 3D modeling. CAD is a foundational STEM/STEAM skill. A mix of instructor lectures and labs teach students how to find solutions collaboratively to achieve a design goal while learning skills usable in the real world.

Target Audience: Anyone 14 or older with an interest in learning the basics of 3D solid modeling.

Students demonstrate competency by creating a series of 3D models from specifications employing techniques learned in this course. 6-8 classroom hours.
