3D Printing Design
Design intricate 3D-printable objects using BlocksCAD, a free online program developed here at Einstein’s Workshop! Our easy-to-learn software makes coding and 3D design as simple as dragging and dropping blocks of editable code. Each block modifies 3D shapes to create models unique to your style. Develop an intuitive understanding of coordinate geometry while turning their […]
Computer Art and Making Things
Modern “making” is so much more than just working with our hands. Using computers and technology, we can make anything look cool! Learn computer art and design programs to make awesome images and art. Then apply what you learned to make cool and useful objects on our laser cutter that you get to take home!
Introduction to Electronics: Fun with Circuits
Students learn the basics of electronics and the principles of circuitry. Students bring their learning to life by making motors spin, lights shine, and speakers blare! Materials Fee: $40 (included in price). Each student gets their very own circuitry kit to keep after class ends so the fun and learning can continue!

My First Minecraft Mod
Learn to create your own Mods for Minecraft and get an introduction to programming while you’re doing it! We use Code Kingdoms, an intuitive coding interface that allows students to program on several levels, ranging from “block coding” to more complex Java. This class is a great introduction to programming with no prior experience required!
Fun with Physics
Students enjoy entertaining and educational science experiments to gain an understanding of Physics including Newton’s First, Second, and Third Laws of Motion, Newton’s Law of Gravity, and more. They’ll build boats and rockets, make and play with marble runs and catapults, and tackle many other fun physics projects.
Coding for Kids
In this introduction to the world of programming, students will learn first through hands on games, then by guiding Botley, a programmable robot, through a series of mazes. Once they’ve mastered the basics, students will tackle more complex programming in Scratch Jr, a free tablet based programming environment. Students love creating stories and games with […]
Dungeons and Dragons Adventures
Role-Playing games like Dungeons and Dragons are great for developing imagination, creative problem solving, and teamwork. Our players create and control fantasy heroes as they embark on grand adventures, exploring new and long lost lands, battling perilous foes, and making new friends along the way.
Minecraft Architecture
Minecraft is more than just a game, it is a creative tool that allows players to create and experience feats of engineering, amazing structures, and epic works of art. Tour the Parthenon! Be awed by Notre Dame’s beauty! Will you be fooled by the false tomb or find the real one in the Taj Mahal? […]
Learning Robotics with LEGO
Take LEGO robotics to the next level! Students learn how to build simple machines with motorized parts such as winches, pulleys, drive trains, and more! Add sensors and program your creations to respond to their environment. Students work together to design a machine to meet the challenge of the day! No previous LEGO experience required.
