Making Tinkering Lite Ii

The course aims to equip you with basic technological awareness, particularly computer simulation and basic prototyping using 3D printing, and other hands-on skills required for building basic equipment and products related to Science and Technology. Through this course, you will develop creativity as you are encouraged to explore different approaches to a given problem, and resilience when facing the need to acquire new technological skills in a limited time in order to solve a given problem. Finally, you will have the opportunity to share and refine your ideas with other makers and tinkerers in this course.
