MakerCampus is growing quickly and the classes we are lining up are very exciting. We’ve got something for everyone! This week you can learn the principles of engineering by constructing fantastic paper structures. You could also learn about software defined radio in a class that is quickly becoming one of our most popular!
Engineering With Paper
Learn how to make your own table-top amusement park style games using only paper, tape and scissors. This hands-on workshop will get you cutting, folding, connecting and building in a matter of minutes. You will start by learning the Engineering with Paper “alphabet” of techniques and then transform ordinary paper into interactive games. Unleash creative possibilities while also learning how to re-use and up-cycle supplies you already have.

An Intro To Software Defined Radio
In this workshop, Alex will show you how to unlock the world of radio communications. You’ll learn how to use a technology called software-defined radio (SDR), with which you can explore the electromagnetic spectrum using nothing but a $30 kit and your computer. After getting set up with your SDR kit, Alex will also demonstrate various signals you can receive all over the world while revealing some of the underlying principles of radio communications. At the end of this workshop, you’ll have the tools necessary to further your exploration of radio technologies and even use wireless communications in your next project.
