Advanced 3D Printing Workshop for Teachers

January 24, 2018 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm EST

Free
Teachers using 3D printers in a workshop setting

Join us for a fun, educational day!

Cost: complimentary, including lunch

This workshop will explore applications of 3D printing in different K-12 curricular areas.  The creation of 3D objects with included openings or cavities can assist students in visualization, planning and technological understanding.  Standards-oriented examples to be explored may be taken from:

  • Geometry
  • Chemistry
  • Mathematics
  • Geography
  • Physics
  • Elementary mechanics

Prior familiarity with the simple use of 3D printers is assumed, such as that gained from the “3D Printing Workshop: Hands-On Classroom Technology” previously offered by MSU-St. Andrews, Midland, Mich.

This course includes the use of double-headed 3D printers, and of water-soluble filament for structural support and cavity filling.

Instructors: Tracy Zhang and Robert Bubeck.

Limited to 10 participants.

Registration for this event is now closed. Register now for Basic 3D Printing on March 14 or Advanced 3D Printing on April 11.
