My Project

I work with ESL students and I would like to give them opportunities to learn about 3D printing. We will make items for my portable classroom, trophies for incentives, and other pieces that can help scaffold their learning.

My students will be better prepared to learn science and engineering through 3D printing.

Additionally, they will collaborate to create and present projects utilizing the printer, while learning to speak the English language. This printer will be used for years to come, to enhance my student’s educational experience and improve their academics.
