1. 3D Printing & Infographics
Physical- and Digital-Making Opportunities

2. 3D Printing

3. 3D Printing in the Steam 3D Lab
There will be 3D printers in our lab as well as 1 foodbot (Pancakebot)
How do they work?
We will be watching a video from a group set out of Mumbai, India as they explain how the process works?

4. So what do we use? TinkerCAD Free, easy to use online application
Steps
Place a shape (import your own or use what’s there)
Adjust it (move, resize, rotate, etc.)
Combine (group shapes together to make your model)

5. How could you use this technology for your field?

How could you use this technology for your field?

6. Some Examples Education
Accommodation tools (Braille Periodic Tables, Braille Dice, etc.)
Math Manipulative Sets
Medical
Artificial limbs
Braces, splints, etc.
Tissue and cells (in-progress)

7. Where to find Existing 3d Print Files

8. Infographics

9. Information + Graphics = Infographic
What is an Infographic?
Information + Graphics = Infographic
Visual explanation that helps you more easily understand, find, or do something
Uses 3 things:

10. A Bit About Infographics
Infographics take complex sets of information and break them down into pieces that are easier for a reader to digest
They are made so readers can understand difficult concepts more easily by looking only at the infographic

11. We will be creating very basic infographics today:
Picktochart
We will be creating very basic infographics today:
In 4 or 5 steps try to summarize your morning routine.
Think about images that would help tell your story.
Outline how you would like the infographic to look
