Description
3D design can be used in the classroom to create interactive lessons and activities across the curriculum. This hands-on workshop will demonstrate how students can easily create 3D designs for 3D printing, creative exercises, prototyping, dioramas, augmented reality experiences, physics demonstrations and more.
We will thoroughly explore the many functions of Tinkercad and other 3D design software that is appropriate for primary and secondary students. This workshop also seeks to provide an overview of core concepts of 3D printing and how it can be used to redefine students' learning experiences. All activities are underpinned by the idea that students should be creative users of technology, therefore, it will highlight how 3D printing can be used to facilitate this process. Yes, you will get the chance to design and print your own creations!
It is anticipated that this hands-on workshop is most appropriate for teachers engaged in STEM, Design and Technologies or Digital Technologies. However, the concepts covered are not exclusive to these areas and we encourage apprehensive technology users to register.
Participants will need to bring their own laptop computers. If this cannot be arranged, please contact Simon.
