Whether you currently teach digital fabrication, hope to do so in the future, or simply want to explore the creative process of working in new technologies, this three-week intensive course will expand your creative tool box.
Join Arcadia's Art and Design program from July 12 to 30 to explore your creative process while gaining knowledge in Project-Based Learning and Maker Education. This course teaches critical aspects of the digital maker-based software and hardware that translates your ideas from concept to actualization. Students will experiment with and design projects for the laser cutter and 3D printer; incorporate electronics and soft circuitry into their design; and test a variety of fabrication tools.
The course will combine lectures, discussion, and a maker lab. Our focus is on how to create through technologies and translate that process into valuable opportunities and cross-disciplinary applications.
Topics covered will include:
Technology experiences will include:
Small projects will lead to one extended self-directed project that solves a large-scale problem with design.
