Christmas Camp: Introduction to 3D Printing & Modeling (Age 9-11) @ Sheung Wan

Christmas Camp: Introduction to 3D Printing & Modeling (Age 9-11) @ Sheung Wan


This course is designed to introduce 3D modeling and printing techniques to the 3D natives.

 

Kids and teens of this generation are all 3D natives. From Minecraft to 3D movies, children are surrounded by 3D images and animation from a young age. Spatial thinking capabilities are a critical component of developmental

Specifically catered to beginners, camp will start with an introduction of 3D modeling, navigating through the interface of TinkerCad, a beginner friendly 3D modeling software.

The course then covers 3D design elements and principles, dissects how 3D printer works, and moves into modeling more complex structures.

The camp finishes with a complete 3D product which is printed out for kids to take home.

Camp Highlights

  • 8:1 Ratio Guarantee

First Code Academy believes in developing a personal relationship with the student. All instructors are as much teachers as they are facilitators, and coach for students' learning. By ensuring a small class, each student benefits from maximum attention from instructor and teaching assistant, and at the same time, learns from peers.

  • Personalized Learning

Courses are designed for students to run at their own pace. Curriculum is level-based for each module, meaning that each student can learn at their own appropriate, customized pace.

  • Hands-on Project-based Learning

First Code classrooms are messy and chaotic! First Code Academy believes in hands-on creation, experimental learning and lots of discussion.

  • Follow on Curriculum for Immersed Learning

What happens after this holiday? Like learning any other language, learning to code is best done through an immersive, continual commitment. First Code Academy offers a multi-year curriculum that allows students to deepen and broaden their interests in computer science and software development.
