Student Voices, Part One: Young Designers at Work (S3, E7)

What happens when you give a student a computer, a 3D printer, and the permission to build? Once, a classroom was a place for quiet rows and worksheets, but today, it is becoming a workshop. In this special student-voices edition of the One-to-One Podcast, we travel to classrooms across Illinois to hear directly from the next generation of makers, designers, and young entrepreneurs. In this episode, you'll hear from 3rd graders using TinkerCAD to design highly detailed miniature worlds and 4th graders engineering adaptive and assistive devices to help individuals with disabilities navigate daily life. Join us as we explore how technology is shifting students from passive consumers of media into active, empathetic architects of their own imaginations. A special thank you to Christy McGraw, her students, and her district for giving us their time -- and inspiring us one print at a time.
