The 3D printing class is learning about different ways this new technology is impacting culture and society. Students research different applications and describe the technical difficulties designers and engineers overcome and the benefits and drawbacks to the economy, environment and society. One student presented about the applications of 3D printing in the food industry - can you imagine printing your dinner in the near future? Other presentations include the history of 3D printing (it is older than you think) and 3D printing and gun control. Students are engaged in learning more about the technology they work with in this elective class and get inspired by the possibilities. More students will soon have access to 3D printing opportunities as well when the library printer comes online sometime in November.
