My Project

In the ever-evolving landscape of education, it is imperative to equip students with tools that not only enhance their learning experiences, but also prepare them for the challenges of the future. This project combines innovation and creativity, offering a unique opportunity for students to delve into the realms of creativity, design, and technology through the power of 3D printing.

The primary goal of this project is to harness the potential of 3D printing technology to teach Computer-Aided Design (CAD) techniques.

CAD is a skill that has become increasingly relevant in today's technology-driven world, and the resources requested will provide high school students with a hands-on experience in mastering this valuable skill. By utilizing a 3D printer as a medium, students will engage in designing intricate jewelry, crafting prototypes, and creating functional products.

As a new technology at our school, we are also asking for the items needed to set up the classroom space including a work table, storage container, and the 3D printing filament. With the proper set up, students will be able to build and make their dreams come true.
