About the Learning Skills

Inventors need to learn new things! We know learning new things is tough. It’s hard to get to a class or a meeting outside of school. So we’re trying to make learning easier for you!

The Learning Topics (Learn) are designed to be done at home on anything from your smartphone, laptop, home computer or tablet. Learn at your own pace, there are no time limits! Just choose a topic of interest, and what level of experience you have, and go-for-it!

Once a month your Crew or Team will meet at an Invention Lab, where you will be able to put your new learned skill to use. Have fun and create something new!
