About the event
A deep dive into educational 3D printing and how MakerBot’s classroom‑ready ecosystem is empowering students and teachers across STEM disciplines. This session will explore easy‑to‑use printers, intuitive software, and structured workflows designed to bring hands‑on learning directly into engineering, design, and project‑based classrooms.
We’ll look at real examples of how schools are integrating 3D printing into their curriculum. From rapid prototyping and problem‑solving challenges to creative design projects that build technical confidence. Attendees will gain insight into how MakerBot’s ecosystem supports lesson planning, classroom management, and skill development, making additive manufacturing accessible for educators at any experience level.
A great opportunity to connect with fellow educators, see practical classroom applications, and learn how 3D printing is shaping the next generation of makers and engineers.
