My Project

I would like to give my students access to 3d printing technology so they can create whatever their imagination brings. I would love for students to be able to design 3d representations as options for culminating projects.

Not only will students be able to challenge their own creativity in the 3d maker space, but they will be able to develop prototyping and problem-solving skills.

My hope is to allow students the opportunity to create art, figures, pieces, and products. These printers could be integrated into lessons on manufacturing and industrialization, as well as technology and artistic expression. How interesting would it be to have custom 3d printed game pieces for a board game project? or be able to make models for a science fair project?
