| Abstract Scope |
This project aims to develop teaching materials through 3D printing to support educational processes related to science, heritage and culture associated to the Museum of the University of Antioquia, and greatly oriented to the education of the children visitors. Different pieces from local fauna have been selected mainly based on their potential impact over the environmental education. These parts were printed via fusion deposition modeling, an additive manufacturing inexpensive technique. The impact in teaching is presented as well as the potential impact in society, environment, and in the museum conservation pieces. A teaching model is also discussed in relation to engineering and arts. This project presents a collaboration between scientists, engineers and artists to give innovative solutions with impact in society. |
