Upgrading Our Education

Help me give my students laptop computers to allow them to design using 3D printing software

My Project

Our school introduced a STEAM program last year and we where able to purchase a 3D printer for student use. We found however that the student computers weren't strong enough to use the design software so these computers will be used by students during their STEAM class to design and operate using a 3D printer!

My students love the 3D printer, I am constantly finding them standing in front of it watching it print and excitedly asking questions or dragging their parents in to look after school.

With the requested laptop, I would love to be able to nurture that curiosity and excitement by giving them the ability to create the designs themselves instead of just printing the designs of others.
