China3D printingNet September 10th, the Long Island Science Center (LISC) is a STEAM learning museum located in New York. It has recently received a $20,000 grant from the Long Island Community Foundation to provide children with3D printingLesson plan,
Education will be developed for disadvantaged children in the Riverhead and Riverside communities in New York3D printingplan. “We recognize that few elementary and middle school students in this area have technology-based courses.” Executive Director of Long Island Science CenterKallerexplain,
“We]are working on developing a series of new projects that will have design as the theme, such as3D printingAnd the engineering design process is very interesting and can be used by students. “

Advancing STEM through additive manufacturing
LISC was established in 1990 to provide a large number of STEM programming for the public and school groups. The museum is located in Riverhead, New York and has 2,000 square feet of exhibition and classroom space. It aims to provide interactive STEAM exhibitions for children and adults by cooperating with local enterprises, historical societies and professional societies. Since its establishment, LISC has provided STEAM courses to more than 345,000 children.
With funding from the Long Island Community Foundation, LISC will now provide three 5-week programs for two different age groups3D printingCourses include elementary and middle school students.The program will start in October 2019 and will educate children3D printingEngineering design process. Students in this program will learn how to use Tinkercad software for 3D design and will also have access to free and open “3D printingTime”, where they can3D printingTheir design.
By providing3D printingFor courses, LISC hopes to provide students with the necessary technical skills to enter STEM employment opportunities. “We know that many students have decided their future direction when they are in high school, and we want to help them explore how STEM can be part of their future.” Kaller added.

3D printingAnd education
Various educational programs centered on additive manufacturing have been established to promote students’ STEM/STEAM learning.Recently, the National Center for Additive Manufacturing Excellence (NCAME) at Auburn University launched a3D printingPractical experience to promote STEM discipline plans.
The award-winning OEM GE Additive launches the Additive Education Program (AEP), which focuses on providing desktops for primary and secondary schools3D printingMachine and packaging, with special attention to K-12 students.The company announced that it expects AEP to be used by more than one million students by 20203D printingchance.
Taiwan3D printingMachine manufacturer XYZprinting also offers K-12 STEAM courses, which are designed to promote use in classrooms3D printingmachine.It comes with step-by-step instructions from teachers to help provide3D printingThe attractive course of the machine.
