Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project
My students will use the Flash Forge Creator Pro 3-D printer as a tool for bringing innovative ideas to life. In conjunction with product development, design thinking, and fabrication a 3-D printer will be a concrete tool for developing rapid prototype of products, inventions, and artistic models.
A variety of technical and artistic skill sets will be applied in project development and production.
3-D modeling software and scanning will be used to develop 3-D models. A 3-D printer will provide a contemporary technological experience for hands-on product and hardware proficiency.
3-D printing and modeling will greatly enhance the multimedia education provided students in both design, software, and hardware. As well as provide an incentive for participation, learning, and cross curriculum collaboration by allowing hands-on projects and learning.
