24-104   Maker Series I: Intro to Modern Making

This course teaches the safe operation of fabrication tools, including 3D printer, laser cutter-engraver machine, and soldering through structured hands-on activities. A significant portion of the course is dedicated to learning SolidWorks 3D CAD software and Arduino microcontroller for integrating physical computing into prototypes. The acquisition of these skills culminates in the development and fabrication of a prototype that solves a real-world problem. 3-unit mini (7-weeks)
