X9210: Making Light in HSSP Spring 2015 (Feb. 21, 2015)
Is it always difficult to know how to make something? How do we learn how to realize our ideas and to describe our making activities? In this class, students will learn a new process on how to design and build things. We will make (design and build) small lighting units using paper, LEDs and basic electronics. Students will be able to understand and apply simple electronics circuits in a fun project. If budget permits, we can use arduinos and sensors and learn some basic programming. If we can get access to a laser cutter – a machine that cuts paper and cardboard using laser- and couple of laptops, we can learn how to draw a simple 2D shape, and cut it on a laser cutter.
