My Project

Students at home did not have access to all the technology that is normally available at the school. Access to and the ability to personally interact with the hardware gives them the physical contact that improves their intuitions of how mechanical devices work. During COVID my students were able to design using CAD but did not get to finish the project through to a complete 3D printed model. Students will act as entrepreneurs, designing a custom pen accessory for a client and then produce a prototype that is 3D printed.
