Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

For students to design, develop, and print in 3D while learning how to use Autocad on a Chromebook is nearly impossible! An Apple Mac Studio - 32GB will let them focus on their learning instead of the error messages they receive. By having the Apple Mac studio in the classroom, students can freely come to the room to render their 3d design before printing, create virtual worlds, or share with their peers. In the classrooms, students are asked to design 3d models, codify solutions to complex problems, and much more. However, the tools inside the classroom are limited. Not only is it important that students are able to visualize their design and present solutions but communicate their ideas in a classroom space using interactive, tactile models that can build something even greater. Teaching communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and creativity is key for my students.

The Apple Mac Studio will allow students to design from their imagination using a seamless hardware that is made for 3D modeling.

A student's creativity is only limited by their imagination. Some students do not have the accessibility of designing 3D models but by bringing an Apple Mac Studio into the classroom it will change their lives.
