My Project

My goal is to support students in learning how to design and print models using a 3D printer. Elementary school students will use Tinkercad software to design models and bring them to life by using the 3D printer.

This printer and filament will support learners across grade levels and can be used for a variety of projects.

The students that I work with are bright, curious learners from historically underserved backgrounds. I want to allow them to develop these engineering, technology, and creative thinking skills that many of their peers have access to at home.
