Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Spatial Visualization (SV) is the ability to visualize and manipulate 2D and 3D shapes in one’s mind. I have been teaching this skill to my students using apps but now I want to add to their experiences of spatial visualization by planning and creating weaving projects.

Many of my students are very creative and have not been allowed to connect these artistic abilities with a SV engineering project.

Most of my students are also classified as low socio-economic presented minority. This guides my instruction by ensuring my students have opportunities within the classroom that they may not have outside of the school.

With these materials, I plan to connect 2D to 3D design sketching with a fully functional weaved prototype that will support spatial visualization learning. I want to increase the opportunities with Spatial skills since they are learnable, and data has shown that SV training leads to increased graduation rates and improved GPAs in several introductory STEM courses.
