End of the Semester

We've come to the end of the semester, and that means it is exam time!  While the students in my tech classes will not have a final in the traditional sense, they all contributed to the Makerspace throughout the semester and I was able to grade them on the pictures they took, the blogs they wrote, and their participation in the everyday activities.

We had a bunch of winners collect their winning from our October challenges last week, here is a picture with the students and their winnings!

In addition, we had a light bulb shaped cookie cutter challenge, and here is our winner with one dozen light bulb shaped cookies from Cookie Genius.

And then we had our challenge for the months of Nov/Dec, to make the most creative 3D printed cookie cutter. Here are pictures of our submissions and our winner with some cookies!

While the students take their exams, I'll still be running our 3D printer non-stop!  Last week, we printed out half of a chess set, and today I am printing the other half so that our chess club will have a unique, 3D printed chess set!

We had a great fall semester. I am looking forward to an even better spring semester with more challenges, more ideas, and more creativity!
