Filaments

PLA Filament

o Polylactic acid is a thermoplastic polyester

oMade from renewable resources and biodegradable (http://goo.gl/6Tln1H)

o Safe for Food Contact

o Roughly: 20 / lb (hard), $30 / lb(soft)

oMust use on non-heated plate (i.e. MakerBot Replicator 2)

ABS Filament

oNeeds heated build plate

o Impact resistant and tough

oHard & Glossy

o Petroleum-based

o Flammable

o Prone to cracking if cooled too quickly

oUsually bends before it breaks

oHas a strong, toxic smell

o Strength is relatively equal to PLA

oRoughly $20/lb

Allentown Public Library

“Allen County collaborated with

TekVenture, an educational nonprofit

specializing in makerspace technology,

to create the lab. Working off a simple

one-page agreement, TekVenture

agreed to provide the trailer, along

with the equipment and some free

programming, and Allen County offered

free parking.”

Helpful Signs

Everyone is a Maker • Our world is what we make it. • If you can imagine it, you can make it. • If you can’t open it, you don’t own it. • We share what we make, and help each other make what we share •

We see ourselves as more than consumers—we are productive; we are creative. • Makers ask, “What can I do with what I know?” • Makers seek out opportunities to learn to do new things, especially through

hands-on, DIY (do-it-yourself) interactions. • The divisions between subjects like math and art and science dissolve when you are making things. Making is an interdisciplinary endeavor. • It’s all right if you fail, as long as you use it as an opportunity to learn and to make something better. • We’re not

about winners and losers. We’re about everyone making things better.• We help one another do better. Be open, inclusive, encouraging and generous in spirit. • We celebrate other Makers — what they make,

how they make it and the enthusiasm and passion that drives them.

Why libraries should be at the forefront of the makerspace movement?

From New Horizons Report: “One of the most significant aspects of 3D printing for teaching and learning is that it enables more authentic exploration of objects that may not be readily available to schools.While it has become easier for teachers and students to work with these models, some of the most compelling applications of 3D printing in K-12 come from schools and programs that involve students creating something that is all their own.”

New Horizons Report for K-12: http://www.nmc.org/pdf/2013-horizon-report-k12.pdf - pg 28; image from http://goo.gl/nClQ55

Evolving from Consumption Space to a Creator Space

Play = Learning

Image from: http://goo.gl/v1uWM5

• “learn how to use tools and processes to help them reach their own goals and realize their own ideas”

• “shared spirit, ethics, discipline, mutual respect, reciprocity, self-directed learning”

-makerspace.com PlayBook

Participatory Learning

o Heightened motivation and new forms of engagement through meaningful play and experimentation;o Learning that feels relevant to students’ identities and interests;o Opportunities for creating using a variety media, tools and practices;o Co-configured expertise where educators & students pool their skills and knowledge and share in the tasks of teaching &

learning;o An integrated system of learning where connections between home, school, community and world are enabled and

encouraged
