Teachers'+Lounge—Art,+Technology,+and+Education

Teachers’ Lounge: Art, Technology, and Education December 11, 2014 4:30pm – 6:30pm

Once limited to manufacturing, 3D printing has emerged as the latest technological horizon in schools and other informal learning venues like museums and libraries. As an emergent field in education, 3D printing promises to enhance learning with opportunities for students to solve real problems in the world.

Join us for this Teachers’ Lounge exploring uses of 3D printing in art and the curriculum. This program begins with a panel discussion, which will be broadcasted via Google Hangout on Air. Those who attend the workshop at the museum will have an opportunity to try aspects of 3D printing and designing in a session following the discussion.
