3D Fabrication Lesson Plan

 


Lesson Plan 1 

Learner 

Middle school students 

Learning Objectives

  • Learn about mathematical frameworks for modeling objects in two dimensions and in three dimensions

  • Learn how to model objects using CAD

  • Learn about design for manufacturing

Curriculum 

Unit 1

The introduction of mathematical basics (two dimension, three-dimension) and  3D printing foundations (principles, process, technologies)

  • Material: slides, videos 

  • Practice: Quiz (some questions to test students’ knowledge of dimension and 3D printing)

Unit 2

Learn to use the tools

  • Material: 3D printing tools

  • Practice: Draw out the whole process of printing a 3D object 

Unit 3

Group work - Create Emoji using 3D printing

Students will follow design process, from brainstorming and taking measurements, to modeling, 3D printing and analyzing their product

  • Materials: Paper, pensil, 3D printing tools 

  • Practice: Group Project work

Lesson Plan 2

Learner 

High school students 

Learning Objectives

  • Learn about the learning environment and the elements

  • Material: slides, videos 

  • Practice: Quiz 

Unit 3

A group project which consists of 6 steps:

Step 1 - Group idea  Step 4 - modeling

Step 2- Brainstorm  Step 5 - Printing

Step3 - Draft  Step 6 - Assemble

  • Material: Paper, pen, 3D printing tools, computer

  • Activity: group project 

Unit 4

Showcase. They can present their ideas with other people and  get feedback from other students and teachers.
