Think Like da Vinci

April 27, 2019 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm


Grade K-12 teachers | 7-hour workshop | Up to 10 participants

Workshop available at Carnegie Science Center.
Sat., April 27, 2019 from 9am–4pm

Leonardo da Vinci embraced STEM before it was cool. Learn how to think, design, and build like the famous inventor did. In this full-day workshop, educators can learn how to incorporate STEM competencies into authentic making experiences. Begin with a hands-on engineering challenge in the Fab Lab as you put a new, digital spin on engineering and design. Then, after exploring the dozens of remarkable inventions and fine art exhibits featured in Da Vinci The Exhibition, work with facilitators to create a da Vinci inspired project that incorporates digital fabrication tools such as CAD software and laser cutters. Share best practices with other educators while learning how to mix both time-tested and cutting-edge engineering technologies in your classroom.
