Teaching math and science with 3D prints

Maker Faire Bay Area 2017

May 19th-21st

Presentation 3D Printing

3D prints can be used to teach science and math by creating an accurate 3D model of a concept for students to handle, or by designing a “starter set” model that students can then alter and use as the basis for explorations. We will discuss lessons learned and related projects.
