(1) To cultivate the habit of making, tinkering, iterating and creating, by our students.
(2) To shift their mindset from that of consuming, to that of creating.
(3) To cultivate their sensitivity to opportunities for design that improves the lives of others and themselves.
The pathways that allow these outcome to materialize, are via our three key programs:
(1) Microbit learning where students learn coding to control a microprocessor that can perfom many tasks.
(2) 3D printing where students make use of CAD drawing (computer aided design) such as Tinkercad, to generate prototype in PLA (polylactic acid) material.
(3) Traditional hands-on making, using cardboard, acrylic, wood, recycle material, to create products.
The lower secondary classes are taught Micro-bit and 3D printing via vendor support, while upper secondary classes engage in both teacher led projects and self-initiated projects, after gaining experience from the lower secondary learning.
