Try a lab project
A small task, a test, and something you can explain.
Use these examples before joining a group. The complete track plans include six sessions, middle- and high-school adaptations, and instructor rubrics.
Create & manage a club
Plan a six-person repair club. Define its purpose, roles, first meeting, and a $60 materials budget. Test what happens if two members cannot attend.
Build & host a web app
Make a club task board with three sample jobs. Mark a job complete, filter the list, and test it using only a keyboard. Explain what happens when the page reloads.
AI for engineering & 3D printing
Design a desk organizer that fits a 100 × 80 mm space. Sketch it with dimensions, check wall thickness, and explain one tradeoff before any printing.
Printing requires instructor review, suitable ventilation, training, and supervision. A drawing or model is enough for this exercise.AI for business management
A fictional club sells 20 kits at $8 each. Each kit costs $3.50 and the event costs $30. Calculate revenue, total cost, and profit. Check an AI-generated answer against your own calculation.
