My Students

My students are learners first and foremost. They want to learn about this, that, and whatever I can teach them. They adhere to my philosophy of getting the most out of education that you can while it's still free! So many of my students experience the "opportunity gap" and without support from generous funders like you will not have a chance to experience things in school that others their age are experiencing simply based on the zip code they live in. Social justice and educational equity are just two of the reasons why I do what I do for a living!

Middle and high school students absorb all sorts of knowledge on a daily basis.

It's my job to ensure that what they are learning is relevant and current to the real world that they will soon be out navigating on their own! Additionally, middle school students explore their curiosities on a daily basis and I want to lead them down a path where they value the educational process and actively seek out new and innovative learning experiences!

My Project

While I have some 3D printers in our MakerSpace, they really have become the standard printers for our 3D print shop, HUSTLE! However, on a daily basis, my middle school students are using TinkerCAD and other web design tools to make original 3D print creations. The problem is that they are not getting their finished products for months at a time based on the inability to print them as there are no open printers available because of the aforementioned student-run business. Please help my students so they can learn to manage the print process more efficiently and walk away from class with a tangible item sooner, rather than later, or even worse yet, never!
