| Event Name: | STEM+A@Astronomy: Learning Astronomy and Space Science by DIY Building Blocks |
| Event Description: | Traditionally building a customized telescope with a unique design usually requires engineering techniques, such as a DIY Maker, computational prototyping and 3D printing. However, building blocks, such as Lego bricks and Nanoblock, would be helpful as educational tools for making astronomical prototypes or demonstrating space science in a more accessible way, by customizing your design in different shapes and color combinations with low-tech requirement. Language: English (in OAO Broadcast) Target Audience: children, educator, science communicator, amateur astronomer & general public Time: TBC |
