Are you ready to take on an educational journey that gets your students engaged and thinking? Now that 3D printers have come down in price and size, one of the most exciting applications of the technology has been in the classroom. Whether you have access to a 3D printer or are looking for one, I will share with you several tried and true projects that get students using their creativity and critical thinking skills. From embedded curriculum-based projects to open-ended “invention” projects, you will see the value of 3D printing lessons for your students’ educational experience. These projects will focus on incorporating the process of 3D printing just as much as the project being printed.
