My Students

Part of our STEM mission is to globally help the less fortunate, and to create a better existence. Being able to create, straight from imagination, immediately, will greatly improve students' motivation and foster their creativity, to become better inventors of the future.

My students are very inventive and with 3Doodlers, they do not have to wait for long 3d prints to finish before putting them to use.

In elementary school, students lose their focus quickly, so having instant printing capabilities will alleviate this problem.

My Project

We have many components in our STEM program, from LEGO's, to Robotic kits, and gardening/aquaponics. Daily, we find we need something, whether it's a replacement, or something totally new, so being able to draw & print, will make these complications disappear and it makes our program a much more effective way to reach students.

In this age of immediate needs, wants, or desires, students need the ability to take their thoughts and be able to create them with minimal downtime.

We need creative people to continue to make Earth a better home, with less waste by being able to create exactly what is needed. Having these pens will reinforce the students' abilities & self-esteem, which will make them continue to be more creative & more inventive individuals who aren't afraid to take risks for the betterment of all.
