3D Print Views

I used a 3D printer back in high school and I was so amazed at the amount of different things it can create. As I continue to use a 3D printer in college I become more amazed. The 3D printer can create almost anything you could think of. 3D printing could be a good idea to be integrated into classrooms for a many of different reasons. Students are able to do hands on projects by using technology. They can bring their designs to life. Also there are many different types of projects you can do based on the subject the teacher is working on. You could explore geometry by printing 3D models or teaching fractions by printing pie shapes.

Internet Safety Reflection


I found this presentation to be quite interesting. After listening to the presentation I found out that I learned more than I thought I would. There were many topics he discussed that raised awareness such as child exploitation. I also learned how we help other countries with their child exploitation. I also found it interesting if someone from the United States commits a crime in Canada the United States has no responsibility of dealing with that person because it did not happen in our country. I think that the presentation was entertaining. He was really engaged with our class rather than just sitting there lecturing. I liked the idea of the trading cards with other students because it helps the younger kids learn more about internet safety as well. It makes it want to be a topic of conversation between the young kids trading the cards. I also thought the activity on splitting the the class into two and trying to figure out who was the one who committed a crime was interesting. How mostly all the people on the left were teachers.
