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 in the same event. This bridges gaps between students and faculty, and cultivates a creative mindset.
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.
