3D Printing Reflection: I think that a 3D printer can be very beneficial to the schools that have access to them. There are several different ways these printers can be used to help benefit the learning of students of all ages. Objects that can be printed can help students learn easier by using a visual representation of whatever is currently being taught. MakerBot: MakerBot print is used to prepare, manage, monitor, and share 3D print files. MakerBot has materials that can be purchased to help maximize the quality of 3D printers. Overall MakerBot is a great quality of 3D printer and material that I could use if I ever decide on purchasing my own 3D printer. Thingiverse: Thingiverse is a great website that has many different 3D objects that have already been designed and created. This would be very beneficial to use if someone has something they need to print but do not have enough time to design their own. Tinke...
Khan Academy Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USIQ-DN15Oo For our Khan Academy assignment I watched a video that describes different shapes to students. This video is obviously for an extremely young group of students. A tone is used that will draw the students attention. In this videos students are being taught about shapes. This video only goes over a few different shapes but the voice of the fox is a voice that would help keep young children's attention. This video helps to explain shapes along with how many sides they have.
