We set up 5 stations for 8th grade STEM class to get a sampling of STEM tools.
They recently got 3D pens for the FabLab and some micro:bits. I tweaked my ” micro:bit intro ” slides tutorial. We also had a Tinkercad station, some had already intro’d Tinkercad, so they didnt follow my beginner tutorial. We had a “craft” station to make “monsters” for Halloween starting with an oatmeal canister. The last station was 2D design with cuttle to laser cut a nametag/keychain (they have 2 XTool D1 and a big OMTech that we need to train some teachers/students on and create tutorials for).
We also spent some more time in the Linton-Stockton Fab Lab, discussing what it still needed and setting up 1 of the new 3D printers.
