Abstract
This workshop draws on our experience of working with Key Stage 3 children in local schools over the past 4 years using the teaching of computer aided design (CAD) and 3D printing as a vehicle to develop key skills and confidence, particularly in those children from more disadvantaged backgrounds.
The workshop will introduce some of the teaching resources for CAD which were developed for use in schools. They include video tutorials, tutorial sheets, measuring tools and modelling materials.
The evaluation of these resources indicated that the children involved felt they had developed their numeracy skills because they had used numbers and geometry in a practical situation. The children indicated that they had gained more awareness of how they learned things, and how a number of different media could be used together to help them to learn.
