Establish 3D Printer Based Curriculum in Government School

Story
Updates (5)

NR&VSR Girls High School is a government aided school in Inkollu, Andhra Pradesh. I want to help create 3D printer based learning curriculum for maths and physics. Why? The inability to perform simple arithmetic and logical tasks by children going to government schools is a known state across India. As a first step I wanted to address this issue in my locality.

I have an ANET A8 printer at my home. I have been working on this for about 6 months. I have realised 3D printers make visualisation easy and create inquistiveness amongs children. I plan to my buy a FLASHFORGE printer which would be easy to use.

I would share the updates and success stories every 3 months after creating the basic infrastucture at the school. Thank you one and all.

Dear All.

The amount being withdrawn is being shared with the vendor as advance for starting the procurement of Adventure 3D printer.
I will share the snapshot of the device once I receive the machine.

Thank you for all the support. Please continue to support by sharing with your friend circles.

Dear All,

Thank you all for supporting the initiative. The target amount has not been reached and so I am extending the number of days to run the campaign.

Meanwhile I have started going through 10th math textbook. I have started with co-ordinate geometry. There are existing 3d models available on net for co-ordinate planes, triangles, square. But I have started to model in tinkercad because this would help me to bring insight into design which I intend to share with the kids. The intention is not just learn by looking at 3d models but also be able design oneself.

I will soon share the snapshot of 3d models after printing them. Thank you all once again for the support. Kindly continue to show your support by sharing the link in your social circles. I hope I would be able to raise the targeted money by September 2019.

Regards

Dear Donors and Supporters,

It's been a long time since I updated. Due to personal situations I have been unable to share progress more frequently. Accept my sincere apology.

Now for actual progress. I have been waiting to model parts and assemble them to check the accuracy of the machine which is intended for the school. To my surprise it turned out really well. I am uploading the photos and video of the model. Please check out.
I have also identified modelling software that is best for educational use. Tinkercad is an online and open source tool which has built in functions for modelling.

Finally it seems unrealistic to meet target amount by May deadline. I would extend by another couple of months and hope to reach target. Thank you for your patience. Please continue to support and share the cause.
