3D printing offers a new approach for educators to engage students in critical thinking and problem-solving — and it brings lesson plans to life. Getting to design a 3D model and then see it come to life as a 3D print is exciting, keeps students engaged, and helps them gain a better understanding of the concepts they’re learning.
Beatiful Topology
- Have students create a möbius strip with a piece of paper and tape. Define topology, and discuss the innate beauty that many see in it.
- Research the topological works of Eva Hild, a sculpture artist, and sketch an inspired design.
- In a CAD software, try to recreate your paper möbius strip or a design inspired by Eva Hild.
- 3D print your design for display.
