Inventionland Institute are the creators of a unique and hands-on e-learning curriculum for use inside the classroom for students in grades 6-16. This course uses the inventing process to teach and reinforce a wide range of academic and practical skills. In groups of two or three, students will identify their own innovative product idea and then follow all the steps that a real-world inventor would follow to: develop the idea, design the product, and market it to a suitable target company. Along the way, students learn and apply skills in Internet research, concept model, computer-aided design, graphic design, 3D printing, communications, marketing, video production, and more.
