In this course, we will:

- Discuss similarities and differences between tinkering and engineering

- Learn about the work of artists, tinkerers, and engineers from around the world

- Explore and experience a wide range of tinkering and engineering projects that students can engage in the classroom, at home, or in informal education environments like after school programs

We will engage in lively discussions and active tinkering activities during five two-hour Zoom sessions, with “home-fun” tasks to expand your work between sessions.  

$15 registration fee includes a small set of materials for your “home-fun” tinkering tasks.  We will be mailing these to your address in advance of the first session; please be timely in responding to emails for address verification. 

No refunds for cancellations will be issued after materials are shipped.

Expectations:  Participants are expected to be present on a computer (NOT a phone or tablet as the live sessions include website and other interactives as well as the Zoom window) for our 5 synchronous sessions (2 hours each) and to participate by posting in our Canvas course between sessions.
