Popular 3D Printing & STEM Education News (June 10th – June 14th)

It’s Friday and you know what that means…it’s time for your weekly 3D Printing and STEM education news roundup! This week in the ever growing world of 3D printing the “big” news is that Amazon has now entered the playing field (please see below for a couple articles related to this business move). In the realm of STEM education, we really found the article Engineering students want jobs at NASA, Google, Boeing, Apple and Microsoft — in that order very intriguing and it gives you real insight into the frame of mind of our engineering students and what really inspires them.

On a side note, we would like to thank everyone that made it out to our second Product Design and Development Seminar on Monday, June 10th in Honolulu at the Manoa Innovation Center! We had a wonderful time sharing information and meeting everyone!

Happy Friday! Your weekly news roundup has arrived! In honor of Teacher Appreciation Week, we would like to thank all of the hardworking educators out there making a difference in the lives of our youth. This week saw a lot of mixed press regarding 3D printing, and among all of the negativity we would like to point you to an inspiring article from Makerbot about the Robohand Project; it is wonderful to see 3D printing make such a positive impact on the lives of children and people in need.

Happy Friday! Below is a summary of the most talked about 3D Printing and STEM education news for the past week. Two 3D Printing stories really took off this week Scientists use 3D printer to create ‘bionic ear’ that hears better than you and GE Prepares to Test the Potential of Additive Manufacturing, so if you are short on time we highly recommend that you check out these two news bits. Regarding STEM, the Smithsonian came out with an interactive infographic in which you can follow the STEM education path from early childhood to workforce entry, and along the way you can see the benefits of a STEM education at the different stages Infographic: Where a STEM Education Can Take You (very cool!).

Your weekly 3D printing and STEM education news roundup has arrived! This week the internet was buzzing about the $30 million round of financing announcement by Shapeways — this is really going to help them advance their mission of bringing 3D printing to everyone. On the STEM education front, we wanted to give a shout out to Ms. Sylvia Todd (age 11) who last week won a silver medal at an international robotics competition; and then on Monday took part in the White House Science Fair, where President Obama tested her latest project, a robot that paints. She is a maker, tinkerer and her online Maker Show has made her a STEM superstar. Way to go Sylvia!
