<p>I would like to start a discussion about 3D printers. Over the years, I have toyed with the idea of using robotics in my Digital Literacy classes. I thought Lego was mostly geared towards navigating a course. I also looked at Vex and Hummingbird Robotics as more general purpose and flexible.</p>
<p><br/>I have dropped my investigation in favor of 3D PRINTERS. 3D printers are computer-controlled milling machines that cast small objects out of plastic. I like it because it a tactile project, similar to robotics. The objects need to be done using a 3D CAD drawing program. I think this is a good way to introduce 3D drawing to a broader set of students. My experience is that 3D drawing mostly appeals to students who enjoy art. They create interesting drawings using shading and other animation techniques. With 3D printers, students can draw more ordinary objects - even replicate familiar objects. It also seemed like a good way to get students to use Google/Trimble Sketchup</p>
<p></p>
<p>My investigation is preliminary and has revealed the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>Sketchup does not create STL files, which are used by 3D printers. There are add-ins and utilities. There are also guidelines to ensure that the design can be created using a 3D 3d printer.</li>
<li>There are several free Mac and Windows CAD programs. My next task is evaluate Sketchup+addins versus stand-alone CAD programs.</li>
</ul>
<p></p>
<p>I would appreciate any thoughts or experiences from others.</p>

<p>Creative, inventive, experiencing art and art collections together with the ideas to personally fabricate, remix and make something tangible with room for creativity, reinvention, and collaboration..... Sounds like 21st century skills abound.</p>
<p>As educators, if you had a 3D printer in your school or classroom, what do you imagine could happen? If you already have one, what uses exist??

<p>I have found a few sites out there the assist with these but I can always use more. Also looking for a great real world/business application of surface area and volume of pyramids and prisms that middle school kids could do to help make the connection between the formulas/math and the outside world.</p>

Hi, does anyone have any experience using Augmented Reality in teaching or making elearning apps? For example, see <a href="http://www.livingsasquatch.com">www.livingsasquatch.com</a> .<br />
<br />
Basically this technology relies on a printed marker and a desktop webcam.<br />
<br />
Does anyone, especially teachers, see the value in this over a simple 3D animation?<br />
And if so, what purposes would best suit it? I can see some value in biology for example.<br />
<br />
Thanks!

I have only been an active participant in classroom 2.0 for a short time, and after looking at a lot of the posts, wanted to ask a question.<br />
<br />
How many of you are teaching gaming in your high schools just for gaming sake. That is, to teach them now to program games?<br />
<br />
It seems like there is a lot of discussion about using games and gaming to teach something else. That makes sense. But how about teaching it because it is a valuable skill. One that will be important in many jobs that they will…

It seems like there is a lot of discussion about using games and gaming to teach something else. That makes sense. But how about teaching it because it is a valuable skill. One that will be important in many jobs that they will have. Because it is where the internet will go - especially when we think about 3D gaming.<br />

Hi all,<br />
<br />
(My apologies for the cross posting!)<br />
<br />
I am currently conducting a literature review and compiling an annotated bibliography on the use of 3D multi-player online games and virtual worlds for collaborative learning. If you are aware of any published reports of *empirical* studies (i.e. containing actual qualitative or quantitative data, as opposed to theoretical/conceptual or position papers) and/or case studies/exemplars of practice in this area, I would be most grateful if you could…
Hi all,<br />

<br />
I am currently conducting a literature review and compiling an annotated bibliography on the use of 3D multi-player online games and virtual worlds for collaborative learning. If you are aware of any published reports of *empirical* studies (i.e. containing actual qualitative or quantitative data, as opposed to theoretical/conceptual or position papers) and/or case studies/exemplars of practice in this area, I would be most grateful if you could point me in their direction! So far, most of the papers I have come across have been severely lacking in data, and, unfortunately, have been based largely on rhetoric rather than solid evidence.<br />
<br />
I'd be more than happy to collate all responses received and share them with anyone who may be interested.<br />
<br />
<br />
Many thanks in advance,<br />
