This Catalyst article looks at 3D printing, a new technology which is rapidly finding applications. Although probably too slow for mass production it is useful for producing prototypes and tailor-made items. In a 3D printer, layers of polymer beads are printed one on top of the other. Heat melts the polymer beads...
In this 5 hour STEM Clubs teaching pack students examine ways in which communities can put measures into place to make sure people and properties are safe, and look at how the IoT can bring additional benefits to this safety.
It is recommended that, prior to this...
This five hour teaching pack supports students to research, design and prototype their own Internet of things product to enhance the working lives of firefighters.
...This resource looks into making a prototype of a treadle pump.
Suggested learning outcomes include:
- To be able to manufacture a working prototype of a treadle pump for people living in a remote village.
- To be able to select appropriate materials, tools and equipment for a manufacturing...
In this project, students use Autodesk Homestyler to design a living space for a disabled client. The design must include a ground floor living space with outdoor landscape. The overall plot must not exceed 25m x 60m and the living space must not exceed 10m x 40m. Students create a customer profile to base their...
