Statewide Reach for Local Impact

FIND IT FUND IT FLORIDA

My goal is to obtain a 3-D printer that will allow my students to learn how the 3-D printing process works and therefore be able to operate it independently. The students will then be able to create/print keychains that they will sell. The money that is made will be given to a charity of the students' choosing.

Goal

What will be done with my students

This project will take place over the entire course of the year. The direct group of students affected are part of a Technology and Robotics Leadership Club that meets once a month for the remainder of the year. Although, this project can extend for years to come as well. As a technology teacher, this project directly relates to the Florida Computer Science standards and as a Leader in Me school also allows students to own their own learning and give back to their community.  

 

Benefits to my students

This project will allow my students to be truly invested in the creation and production of items from beginning to end. Students will be genuinely engaged in the process which will create long lasting learning. Students will also be able to give back to their community and therefore create a greater sense of belonging.
