My Project

We are requesting filament for 3D printing because it will significantly enhance the learning experience of our students. By having access to filament, we can bring to life the 3D models that students create in class. This hands-on approach not only reinforces their understanding of concepts but also allows them to visualize and interact with their creations. The process of designing, prototyping, and printing their models fosters a deeper engagement with the concepts learned in class and encourages creativity.

The goal of this project is to have our students have the valuable opportunity to see their ideas materialize and promote a profound grasp of the concepts explored in the classroom.

Our students are highly motivated and eager learners. Many have already applied what they learned to other classes such as 3D printing material for their Science Fair projects. Having filament will allow us to give more students the opportunity to design and print their 3D creations.
