Presenter: Nathan Kenner, Engineering Teacher, West High School, Knoxville, TN

This workshop will focus on providing participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to turn a 3D printer into an asset for their teaching practice. We will explore some examples of printed products that can be used by teachers in math and science and we will learn how to create products that meet the needs of your classroom.
