The WITEA 2016 Spring Conference was an amazing experience. It was an honor to meet so many dedicated, creative, and intelligent educators. The presentations were practical and many of the things I learned were applicable to my teaching.
I would like to thank everyone that attended my presentation. I would also like feedback; How could I improve my presentation, content, or distribution of materials?
Please comment. Let me know how I can make it better. My goal is to always make the content here usable in the classroom with a minimal amount of teacher effort.
This assignment will teach students to align and move objects with great precision using TinkerCAD. It requires them to make use of internet information resources (USA map image) and is an awesome tie-in with geographic knowledge.
Updated March 6, 2017 to reflect changes to the TinkerCAD interface.
Everyone has keys. The 3D Printed Keychain for Absolute Beginners project is a project that everyone will love. This fun project is a fun and simple way to turn an idea on the screen into a custom designed and self-made plastic keychain.
TinkerCAD is free to use, cloud-based software. Like most Cloud based software, you’ll need to set up an account before you can start designing cool, 3D printable objects.
Be sure to have students record their login and password in a place that they can easily access. It can be easy to forget! Our school issues each student an agenda that they are expected to carry; a perfect place for their login information.
