Video(s)

  • L3 – Outreach Options and Instructions
  • L4-L15 Watch as needed (Planning and Execution for each Outreach Option)
  • L17 – Team Identity
  • S2 – Science Objective w/ Trade Study
  • S5 – South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) Information (Optional)
  • C2 – Intro to 3D Printing & Why we calibrate the Printer
  • C4-C6,C8 Watch as needed (Printer and FlashPrint demos)

Assignment(s)

  • Create Outreach Plan/ Decide which Outreach efforts/Final Deliverable(s) your group will do
  • Create Team Identity (team name, logo, and slogan)
  • Choose your science objective using a trade study
  • Research your chosen science objective
  • Print a bed level tester to check calibration of the build plate. If the print doesn’t show good calibration, calibrate the printer yourself. Then repeat the process until you get a good print
  • Print an xyz cube to check calibration of the printer’s dimensional accuracy. If the print doesn’t show good calibration, calibrate the printer yourself. Then repeat the process until you get a good print

Assignment Proof(s) for the Teacher

  • Plan of when you will do what outreach efforts
  • At least a rough draft of Team Identity (team name, logo, and slogan)
  • Completed trade study with a winning science objective
  • Notes gathered on your chosen science objective
  • A printed bed level tester and the reason(s) why it proves the build plate is level
  • A printed xyz cube and the reason(s) why it proves the printer prints with dimensional accuracy
