I am a third year Adapted Physical Education teacher for students with disabilities at an elementary school. My objective is to allow my students to become independent and learn new skills. This project will help students not only in my class, but across all subject areas.
My students range from third-fifth grade and are very delightful.
They are energetic and love to participate in physical activities. They are fascinated by new equipment, and having a variety of visual or tactile equipment will benefit them in many ways.
My Project
3D printing gives students the unlimited ability to design, test and engineer with hands-on exposure to additive manufacturing and gives them an advantage at the dawn of the next revolution in digital manufacturing. Nearly every subject has a potential engagement. From STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) Physics, Design, Art, Law, Ethics, Psychology and Anthropology as well as several other fields in which 3D Printers offer the ability to create solid physical models could be used to develop “discipline-specific courses” for further education and a future in the next revolution of manufacturing.
Your Donation will give my students limitless potential with 3D printing and the result is a powerful combination to promote a powerful learning environments in my school.
3D Printing empowers students to embrace innovative technology and allows them to reach new levels of thinking.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
