3D Model Design with Tinkercad
This course will introduce the students to how 3D Modeling has changed life and society and walk the learner through the basics of 3D modeling with Tinkercad. Students will explore a range of education paths leading to a career in the 3D Modeling industry.
This course will introduce students to the world of 3D modeling in our global society before creating 3D models using the polygonal method of modeling. These models can then be viewed and shared in a digital environment or printed using a 3D printer. With the basic skills the student learns in this course, they will be able to start exploring a variety of educational paths to working in the 3D modeling industry other areas of interest such as Entrepreneurship, prototyping, and marketing; engineering and fabrication; art, design, and sculpture; robotics and more. The course will end with an introduction to the new feature of 3D modeling with code.
