Are you using Tinkercad or Fusion 360 in your classroom? Then Autodesk wants to hear from you! Autodesk loves amazing educators that are changing the conversation in education through making, 3D printing and more. We will be onsite to capture your story on video. If you would like to share your story please email sarah.orourke@autodesk.com to schedule a time. We can’t wait to share your story!
Digital fabrication can encourage students to work collaboratively, stay focused on goals, and develop 21st century skills, while creating interesting products. I will discuss how development of manipulative sketch objects improves spatial reasoning and sketching skills. I will also talk about how we have developed a student maker group willing to train their peers and teachers in the art of digital fabrication.
There will be a display and explanation of Davidson Desktop Doohickey Puzzle Cubes (term final projects), sketching manipulatives for Introduction to Engineering Design students, and some of the products that student makers at Riverside High School have completed at the request of various faculty and staff members. These same students have gone on to develop and implement training sessions and videos for our Ultimaker printers and ShopBot Desktop MAX CNC routers. Our students are an integral part of managing the digital fabrication resources in the RHS engineering labs.

BeAM@Carolina is a growing network of makerspaces where the UNC community comes together in the design and making of physical objects for education, research, entrepreneurship and recreation. Open without charge to all UNC students, faculty, and staff; BeAM (Be A Maker) has become a prominent force in breaking down the proverbial siloed walls of academia. We offer open studios, training workshops, host classes and group activities in spaces equipped with a wide range of digital and conventional fabrication technologies. General information: beam.unc.edu and library.unc.edu/makerspace/
Where: BeAM@Murray Hall and BeAM@Kenan Science Library -- Point your GPS to 100 South Rd., Chapel Hill, NC and look for the Construct3D/BeAM signs. Parking is free on weekends. Follow the wayfinding signs into Murray Hall. We will be offering small group tours on a rolling basis so please drop by Murray when you are able and then stroll over to Venable Hall G301 (across the courtyard and down one level) to see their design and modeling center, co-working and makerspaces, and the handcrafted UNC Periodic Table of the Elements.
