Blended ContentThis session will present 3 of my main activities I use with my students. This is for teachers who are familiar with 3D printing.
0-2 Min - Introduction
2-10 Min - Complete the Cuboid Project - Present the Engineering design process and the problem that we need to solve. We need to make a Cuboid (3D rectangle) with only a partial piece to work with.
10 - 18 Min - They will draw the cube from 3 different angles. Then sketch what the negative space would be if it were to create a Cuboid. Peer-to-peer interaction as they work together.
18 - 30 Min - We will work together to create the completion piece on Tinkercad. I would create a quick model of the piece that we sketched out. Device Based Activity.
30 - 35 Min - Show what a completed piece would look like, discuss continuing to create prototypes and modify our designs to create better fits.
35 - 45 Min - Puzzle cube project - I will present my puzzle cube project and how we prototype with wood cubes and tape then transfer it into Tinkercad.
45 - 55 Min - Present "Help a teacher out project" - how my students use the Engineering Design Process to ask questions, discover a need, and design and create a solution to that teachers problem. Students print out these solutions and give them to the teacher. Show examples.
55 - 60 Min - Questions
