My Project

My students love to learn, and one of their favorite technologies to learn how to use this year has been 3D printing. Unfortunately, with only one 3D printer for 100+ students to share, it is difficult for them to get to print their designs.

3D design is a perfect tool to inspire students to create innovative solutions to real-world problems, and 3D printers give students the opportunity to bring their designs to life by turning an idea into a real three dimensional product they can hold.

These supplies will allow my students to take their designs to the next level and create tangible models, products, and designs to showcase their learning.
