My Students

If you entered my classroom you might be confused at first by what you see. There are dozens of students running every direction working on a thousand different things. This is the benefit of a Technology Ed classroom. Each student gets to work on something that gives them passion and pride.

My classroom if full of all different types of students and projects; each student has the freedom to explore and build what they can dream of.

The robotics team builds and competes in FIRST robotics competition, the technical theater class builds the sets for the school productions, and a manufacturing team creates a company and sells their products. This is what a Maker studio is; a place where a thousand different things can be created and people can explore. My students are continually coming up with new ideas and new projects to complete. My goal is to provide them with all the tools necessary to make whatever they can imagine.

My Project

The request is for a router and router table. Every student who walks in the room will use the router to create whatever it is that they can dream of. The robotics club will use it to ensure accuracy when building their competition robots. The technical theater students will use it to create gorgeous props and sets for stage productions. In every class no matter what the overall topic of the assignment, each kid will use this router multiple times. This means each student will develop technical skills that they than can take and use in another aspect of his/her life. Fewer and fewer students know how things work or can imagine how to build something. This router would give us the ability to replicate and or create anything we might be able to imagine. This router helps us move one step closer to having a fully functional maker space and prop shop.

The router will be used every day by multiple students.

Our classroom goal is to have it be a maker studio were anyone can build what they can imagine. Part of a maker studio is to have the equipment to handle the jobs at hand. This router is a step toward that studio. This customizable router allows students to start discovering and exploring their creative sides. I will no longer have to tell students we cant do a project, because we do not have to tools.
