JMU faculty: Have you ever thought about incorporating 3D printing into your course? Join us for the Spring 2014 3D printing sandbox to learn how to use the 3D printing technology available in the JMU 3-SPACE university classroom and various methods for generating 3D computer models for 3D printing. Participants will learn how to print 3D models as well as discuss ways to incorporate 3D printing into their courses. This will be an exploratory project in which selected faculty and CIT will work and learn together, generate ideas, and reflect on discoveries. No previous experience with 3D printing and/or 3D modeling software is required.
