Leveraging the draw of Minecraft and the excitement of Star Wars, students will be active builders of technology, not simply passive users. Designing, building and printing personal Star Wars or Minecraft inspired 3D designs, students dive deep into 3D design and gaming. Learn binary logic and circuits within the Minecraft world and a virtual circuit coding application. Students will experience first-hand how technology, mathematics, and creativity are not mutually exclusive within a familiar and fun environment!
