CLASS OF 2016
INDUSTRIAL & SYSTEMS ENGINEERING
OPTIMIZING 3D PRINTING IN THE ENGINEERING CLASSROOM
12th Grade Engineering Design and Problem Solving class
Core Elements
Industrial & Systems Engineering
Engineering Design Process
Problem Solving
Dimensioning
Scaling
3D modeling
Presentation
Technical Communication
Scientific Process
There are three 3D printers and several power tools in our Engineering Lab. Each of them have pros and cons. I would like them to be usable by all my students from 6th through 12th grade.
I would like easy to read instructions for each printer
They should detail where additional information could be found
I would like a how-to video for each printer and tool.
I would like each printer to be able to use all PLA we have available. (new parts will have to be made in order to make this possible, some programming may have to be done)
I would like all 3D printers to be easily accessible, possibly on carts so that they can be moved around easily. Students are able to move around items in the room as they see fit.
