Journal Article
3-D printing in your libraries and classrooms
2014
Overview
The 3-D printing creates physical items or objects from digital data. In this Technology Quest column, the author focus on two educators, an art teacher and a middle/high school librarian, who have recently introduced 3-D printers into their learning spaces. Ashley Sullivan received her MakerBot in December 2013, and already, as I write this in May 2014, the students are mesmerized by it. Ashley got her 3-D printer using DonorsChoose.org funds, specifically with backing from the NASCAR Foundation. Sarah Justice received her MakerBot in February 2014. She took it out of the box, hooked it up, and it was ready to go. In her school library she is in the process of creating a makerspace with a sewing machine, large-screen television, old typewriter, and more. The 3-D printer will be a part of this new learning space, but at the moment this technology is on a rolling cart near a plug for easy access.
