Developing Design Leaders for Our Future With 3D Printing!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Griffin's classroom raised $796

My Project

My students are very motivated to learn and create. They collaborate well with one another and love sharing ideas. These materials will afford me the opportunity to continue creating my dream makerspace area so that students can explore, design, create, and produce products. With the use of the 3D printer, students can develop their own products and learn processes for being design leaders in our society.

Thinking about the future of our economy and businesses, getting students to think creatively, being problem-solvers, and knowing the engineering (STEM) design process is vital.

I want to be able to provide them with the best opportunity to start now by bringing their ideas to fruition.

This 3D printer and filament assortment will give them the hands-on experience they need so that they can create, design, and maybe even market products in an environment with unlimited possibilities.
