In eight cities around the world, workshops will teach 3D modeling, scanning, and printing to children aged 8-10 within the framework of Stanford’s d.school design process.
In these activities, kids will use new technologies to model solutions for major real-world problems within the context of the fictional “City X,” the first settlement on an Earth-like alien planet.
3D technologies will help kids bridge the gap between digital and physical worlds, explore cultural differences, and co-create like never before.
The project’s driving philosophy is that we can’t build tomorrow until we imagine it today. And who’s more imaginative than kids?
Now that's education! Making it relevant - hands-on in the real world!
