Walt Disney Imagineering x Kahn Academy!

Welcome back! This is a very impulse post, I feel like I'm dying here in isolation... but that means that I have been spending more time looking at Disney things!

Heres what I came across earlier!

Walt Disney Imagineering Partners With Khan Academy To Bring You ‘Imagineering in a Box’ 

I found this title on one of my favorite Disney blogs and thought it was the perfect thing to write about!  (The Pixi Dust Life)

‘Imagineering in a Box’ is a free online program that brings together the diverse talents of Disney Imagineers around the world for a one-of-a-kind learning experience and is part of Disney’s commitment to helping today’s youth create the future they imagine. 


This new series offers 32 videos in which Imagineers share how they use a wide range of skills – from story development and conceptual design to math, physics, and engineering – to create immersive experiences. This program not only aims to teach the viewers about what goes on behind the scenes but also hopes to inspire creativity and design.

Modules range from a tutorial on engineering software to an interactive exercise where learners are encouraged to gather items around them and create something new. The program’s hands-on components will allow students to relate new concepts to real-world examples to bring treasured Disney stories to life. Each activity is designed to be scalable, allowing individuals to learn on their own or in a classroom setting.  




Wanting to try something new while in quarantine? Check out this program! Let me know down in the comments your thoughts on the whole thing!
