Design thinking was introduced last week to students as part of our unit on 3D design. Students learned about the stages of the design process: empathizing with the users of the design, defining the problem, ideating possible solutions, prototyping the design, testing the prototypes, and the evolving the product created. Students were asked to come […]
Third graders kicked off their 3D printing unit by working with their kindergarten buddies to create cookie cutters for a baking project. Together, they designed their cookie cutters on paper with pencils and crayons. In technology class, the third graders re-created the paper-and-pencil drawings into the iPad app InkPad. This particular app allows users to […]
