Subject & Catalog Number
Course Information
Description
In this J-Term course, students will create an educational product using digital fabrication, the process of making or building by using tools controlled by a computer or digital data (for example laser cutters, 3D printers, electronics, micro-controllers, physical computing, and more). Students will learn how to define a problem of interest, ideate, prototype, test, and iterate on several prototypes. The prerequisite for enrolling in this course is to have a project that could be built using digital fabrication tools, for example a physical toolkit or learning environment. This J-Term course is especially appropriate for students who have been working on an educational product in the Fall Semester (e.g., in T550, T522) or who have an educational project that lends itself to digital fabrication.
