Programme Overview
Our maker programmes focus on creating physical objects and devices with digital tools and technologies. We have offered a wide range of programmess to schools, which we can implement on-premise or via remote learning platforms.

Assistive Living Devices
Apply the design-thinking framework to create devices to help the elderly or physically-challenged with their daily lives
• Understand that Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is the most widely used method of 3D printing, and this technology is used in the 3D pens and printers in this course
• Understand how rapid prototyping can be achieved using 3D printers
• Recognise the main components of a 3D pen and a desktop 3D printer, and use these tools in a safe and responsible manner
• Have a basic knowledge of different 3D modeling techniques and be able to create, move, manipulate and edit objects in Tinkercad, a free, web-based CAD program
• Understand how design considerations can impact the success of a 3D print and apply these considerations to maximise the efficiency and accuracy of their own 3D prints

Creating Objects with 3D Pens
Corporate training or team-building programmes, and school art or post-exam programs with 3D pens
• Use a 3D pen to practice the basic principles of how a 3D printer functions
• Practice basic layering techniques with a 3D pen
• Explore the physical properties of common 3D printer filaments such as PLA (Polylactic Acid) and PCL
(Polycaprolactone)
• Create simple 3D objects by sketching onto pre-defined templates
