Explore volcanos, molecules, tornados, and more! Dive deep into scientific topics with a Geek as you model and investigate scientific phenomenon on Tinkercad. Sponsored by Flint Hills Resources.
Virtually!
We're taking Virtual Learning one step further with a full on science workshop you can join from home! Using Tinkercad to model scientific phenomenon, these workshops are great for kids new to CAD and expert users, since the emphasis will be on the science! Work with Children’s Museum Houston’s own Science Educator, John Bartlett as you explore the scientific world using CAD.
Deep Dive with a Geek Virtual Workshops are a part of the Museum's All-Time Access MyPROJECTS.
