Students will use the bank of 4 3D printers to design and print architectural models fit to scale certain buildings, monuments, and landmarks in the local Palm Springs area. Students will use trigonometry to verify the measurements. This semester-long project will help students engage in the real world application of mathematics and architectural design.
Additionally, a separate 3D printing club is being implemented on our high school campus. Students (25+ already signed up) in this club will design and print objects using iMac computers in our library to help represent our school. These include school logos, variations of our mascot, and other accessories. The 3D printing club will take requests from other clubs and sports teams to produce objects to help fundraise their respective programs. Our plan is to partner with our business academy, entitled Money, Marketing, and Management (MMM) to handle the business end of the fundraisers. Together, we are building a collaborative team of students and teachers that can benefit from these printers.
