My Project

There is nothing better then seeing a student come alive with a concrete challenge that they conquer. My class focuses on integrating Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math (STEAM).

The 3D printer will integrate all of these components through building functioning miniature rollercoasters.

The students will not only need to understand the physics, engineering, and math involved, but will allow them express their artistic creativity while utilizing a new technology. Problem-based learning allows students to engage with the standards that are part of our required curriculum while building skills for their future.
