This article demonstrated how students used Technology to solve a 'real world' problem. It is amazing to think that this project was completed by first graders. I found this article a great expectation to expect more from my own students. The article demonstrates how the project was using the Engineering Design Processes and the author discusses how a 3D printer works and suggests ways schools can find ways to do this unit even if the school does not have their own printer. An interesting article that I will be happy to share with my colleagues.
