2 Day Teacher Training Workshop
Copy
Bring a 3D printer build to your school and teach your students to design real things.
- We will come to your school,
- We guide you in a build of Open Source Ecology's 3D Printer - the simplest 3D printer in the world - with only 33 unique parts.
- We will walk you through the entire 3D printing process.
- We will teach you how to design real things using open source software.
- We will invite you and your students to design useful things with us in global Design Jams
Benefits
- Get continuing education credit as a teacher
- Child and beginner friendly - because it is the simplest design possible. No soldering. Anyone can build one.
- 2_Day_Teacher_Training_Workshop
- Introduce practical design and engineering skills while designing real things that can then be build using the 3D printer
- Join the greater, world-changing Open Source Ecology community.
Professional Development for Teachers
Bring a hands-on 3D printing immersion and 3D printer build to your school and continue your professional development
- Bring more value to your students and school
- Get involved in a global movement for community-based production
- Transform your students from passive consumers to producers
- Build yourself - and build your world
Features
- We Come to Your School during the school day
- Have your teachers and students learn in their own environment
- Inspire your whole school without sending a teacher away with a travel grant
- Bring more value to your school
- For Both Teachers and Students
We offer the possibility to have both student and faculty groups building 3d printers alongside in the same workshop! ‘Learning together’ as a way of fostering a communal ‘making mindset’ is proving especially effective for schools starting making and tinkering programs anew.
This feature is Completely Optional. We are perfectly comfortable running a more classic professional development with teachers only.
Details
3D Printing Bootcamp
- We survey the whole 3D Printing 101 including
- Overview of the industry and technologies (Hype vs Reality)
- DIY ecosystem
- Sourcing and creating 3D models
- Processing 3D models for 3D printing
- OSE D3D Printer - the printer with the lowest unique part count in the world
- DIY 3D Printer Kit is specifically designed for a fast and easy build that maximizes learning
- Transparent design with exposed parts - not a black box
- A scalable, modular printer - can be made at any size and used for other functions, like circuit milling and laser cutting
- Proudly designed and made in the USA - Maysville, Missouri - with a global collaborator team
- Open hardware design allows you to make all kinds of improvements
- Affordable to source AND to maintain
CONTACT US TO SCHEDULE a BUILD and DISCUSS YOUR ORGANIZATION'S NEEDS. WHY WAIT?
SUGGESTED SPECS AND LOGISTICS:
- We can build up to 6 OSE 3D Printers in a session
- Groups of 1-3 teachers OR students OR a combination of the two
- Option 1: an Intensive One Day Workshop (8 hours)
- Option 2: Comprehensive Two Day Workshop (2x 6 hours)
We hold that two days are better for most schools – we can cover more ground, and the attention span holds better.
