Engaging K-12 Students in Integrated STEM via 3D Digitization, Printing and Paleontology

DRIVING QUESTION: How wide is the scale of living beings that we encounter, even if we can’t see them?

DRIVING QUESTION: If you find a fossilized skull, what clues tell you if it is a mammal or reptile?

This is a poster session summary of Megan Hendrickson who is presenting her research on engaging K-12 students in integrated STEM via 3D Digitization, printing, and paleontology.

This video highlghts the iDigFossils project that is designed for teachers and students to use 3-D printers and scanners in order to create fossils.
