Questions will be asked via text chat and read to the presenters by moderators.</em></h3><h3><em>• Those who register will have access to this event, along with all of the longer sessions being offered from our presenters.</em></h3><h1>See the full schedule <a href="https://3dprintingworkplacestem.sched.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">HERE</a></h1><h3>Upcoming Sessions:</h3><h3><strong>• Tuesday, April 28th, 1pm-1:45pm PDT / 3pm-3:45pm CDT / 4pm-4:45pm EDT</strong></h3><h3><strong>"Crowd-sourced 3D Printing for the COVID-19 Pandemic Response"</strong></h3><h3>In this session, 3D Universe founder and e-NABLE co-founder Jeremy Simon will discuss ways that 3D printing can be used to help produce medical supplies to help with the COVID-19 pandemic.</h3><h3><strong>• Tuesday, April 28th, 2:30-4pm PDT / 4:30pm-6pm CDT / 5:30pm-7pm EDT</strong></h3><h3><strong>"Human-Centered Innovation: How to Equip Students with the Skills and Confidence to Inspire Change"</strong></h3><h3>Speakers: Ellen Deutscher, Esra Murray, Jen Owen, Samantha Gleisten, Neesha Rahim</h3><h3>The pace of change has increased greatly in the face of COVID-19. While politicians have closed national borders, scientists, makers, and innovators from across industries have come together in unprecedented ways to provide solutions in the fight against the virus. On display is the increased focus on and need for human-centered innovation and design.</h3><h3>Educators around the world were already teaching this before the crisis and are only more committed to building the skills necessary for this kind of innovation in students today. But how do you equip students with these skills the confidence and inspiration to engage in this kind of design process via remote learning?</h3><h3>Is it different from the design thinking we teach in school? What are the challenges and opportunities to consider? How do we bring all genders to the table?</h3><h3>Join us in a fast-paced discussion with the top female thought leaders in the design thinking space that leave you with practical strategies you can try with your own students.</h3><h3><strong>• Wednesday, April 29th, 9-10am PDT / 11am-12pm CDT / 12-1pm EDT</strong></h3><h3><strong>"3D Printing Materials - Round Table Panel Discussion"</strong></h3><h3>Speakers: Jeremy Simon (3D Universe), Matt Griffin (Ultimaker), Chris Jackson (Terrafilum)</h3><h3>This workshop will go over which materials are available for use in 3D printing, how they perform, and what they are commonly used for. Still printing with PLA? Expand your horizons and learn about all of the other exciting material options available for 3D printing!</h3><h3> Materials have come a long way in recent years, and even the more advanced materials are a lot easier to print than they used to be. Learn about the many advanced engineering-grade materials and composite materials available to use for which projects, which are recommended for e-NABLE 3D printed hands and arms or PPE for healthcare heroes and much more!</h3><h3><strong>• Wednesday, April 29th, 12-1pm PDT / 2-3pm CDT / 3-4pm EDT</strong></h3><h3><strong>"A Photographic Journey of e-NABLE's History and Origins"</strong></h3><h3>Speaker: Jen Owen, co-founder of e-NABLE</h3><h3>e-NABLE is a global movement of makers who are using 3D printing to create free 3D printed hands and arms for those who were born missing their fingers or have lost their limbs due to war, natural disaster, accident or illness. There are approximately 30,000 e-NABLE volunteers in over 100 countries worldwide who have collaborated to create and gift an estimated 10,000 free 3D printed hands and arms to those in need.</h3><h3> Over the past 8 years, the community has grown from focusing on 3D printed hands and arms to helping create prosthetics for birds, tactile learning tools for the blind, assistive devices for stroke survivors and much more.</h3><h3> Now many of those volunteers are switching gears to provide PPE for healthcare workers during the COVID-19 Pandemic.</h3><h3> During this presentation, led by e-NABLE co-founder Jen Owen, participants will learn about the history of e-NABLE and the origin story that led to a global movement of makers!</h3><h3> Join her on her photographic journey through the years, from the first metal hand puppet to new designs for life saving protective gear - all created by volunteers with 3D printers who wanted to "Give the World a Helping Hand."</h3><h3><strong> • Wednesday, April 29th, 2:30-4pm PDT / 4:30-6pm CDT / 5:30-7pm EDT</strong></h3><h3><strong>"3D Printed Prosthetics &amp; K12: e-NABLE in the Classroom"</strong></h3><h3>Speakers: Shashi Jain, Aaron Sottile, Michael Ecker, Jon Schull, Samantha Gleisten, Jen Owen, Amanda Scampini</h3><h3>Educators who seek to engage students in learning opportunities that are meaningful, relevant and based on making are often intrigued when they hear about the e-NABLE community.</h3><h3> This community of “Digital Humanitarian” volunteers from all over the world use their 3D printers to make free and low-cost prosthetic upper limb devices for children and adults in need. For years, this community has helped schools put 3D printers to use (and teach empathy &amp; engineering) by supporting teachers to 3D print and put prosthetic hands together for donation through their network.</h3><h3> Join us to hear from educators who have brought this experience to their students. We will be discussing challenges, opportunities, tips and tricks. Additionally, attendees will gain access to an opportunity to deliver this experience to students at home with no 3D printing involved.</h3><h3><strong>• Thursday, April 30th, 1-3pm PDT / 3-4pm CDT / 4-5pm EDT</strong></h3><h3><strong>"Cura Deep Dive - Extended Session"</strong></h3><h3>Speaker: Jeremy Simon (3D Universe)</h3><h3>Jeremy Simon, Founder of 3D Universe and an e-NABLE Co-founder, will give you a tour of Ultimaker Cura, the world's most popular 3D printing software. He'll show you advanced features you may not be aware of, like how to work with multiple models for dual-extrusion printing, or how to customize print settings in specific regions of a model. There will be a time for Q&A as well.</h3><h3><strong>• Thursday, April 30th, 1-3pm PDT / 3-4pm CDT / 4-5pm EDT</strong></h3><h3><strong>"3D Modeling Design Jam: Using Prompts to Create"</strong></h3><h3>Speakers: Andy Halvorsen (BitSpace), Kevin Smith (BitSpace)</h3><h3> Kevin Smith VP/Creative Director and Andy Halvorsen, STEAM Integration Specialist, both of BitSpace will be teaching this design workshop that will lead participants through a project from idea generation to a design that is ready to be used as a blueprint for construction or for 3D printing.</h3><h3> We will be using the Ultimaker Design Engine Starter Pack for an activity to help get your mind churning and generating interesting design ideas. From there, Kevin and Andy will lead participants through the fundamentals of 3D modeling before branching out into the wider world of design possibilities. Fusion 360 is an industry-leading CAD/CAM software that you can use in your classroom. It is a powerful program used by architects, engineers, and industrial designers for all sorts of projects.</h3><h3> Kevin Smith is a licensed architect and expert maker who is passionate about bringing design &amp; making programs to kids.</h3><h3> Andy Halvorsen is has a background in theater arts and our main liaison to our school partners, Andy has developed countless projects to engage educators and students.</h3><p><strong>For questions, please email us at info@3duniverse.org</strong></p><p>For more information - <a href="https://3duniverse.org/2019/11/12/register-now-3d-printing-in-the-workplace-and-stem-education/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">please visit our blog</a>!</p><p></p><p></p><p></p>
