About the evolution of “Do It Yourself” projects, the tools and methods utilized to learn these skills, and industries to help the weekend construction warrior. We will survey methods of the past to help appreciate the tools of the present (such as Pinterest, YouTube, and HGTV), and learn how to take on a wide variety of DIY projects. The course will include weekly videos and discussions, along with in-class group activities to learn basic home improvement skills. The class will culminate with a final presentation on how this knowledge might help the students become better-informed homebuyers in the future.
