Computer Animation!
Intro to Engineering
Discover the art of animation! In this online class, you will learn how to make objects move across the screen with Adobe Animate. Even without drawing skills, you can begin to make shapes and simple stick figures move. The key is to let the computer do most of the work for you. You will learn a bit of computer programing using ActionScript3, so the User will be able to interact with your animation. Have the User guess numbers or names, make choices on what to do next, or just surprise the User with the next event! It will be up to you - the creator of the action!
Here is an exciting opportunity to dip your toe into the engineering world! Each day you will solve a new design problem by making something with simple materials like cardboard, cracker or cereal boxes, and other recyclables. You don’t need to be math or science oriented to create some pretty amazing projects, but you will learn how to apply math and science to the engineering and design process. Join us and discover your inner engineer!
