This PDH is an online makerspace project created for students and teachers to learn how to design projects that can be cut and engraved using our laser machine in the Middle School Makerspace. The PDH consists of a presentation with instructions and videos that teach how to design a ping pong set using the laser engraving machine. By creating the ping pong set, teachers will gain an understanding of the design parameters, project length involved with laser engraving projects, and practice using the laser engraving machine. Learning how to design laser projects and use the machine will help teachers to encourage the use of our makerspace tools with students, and incorporate the laser engraving machine in their classroom.
To get started, watch the videos and follow the instructions outlined in the Google Slides presentation. When finished with your design, submit it to the Google Form located at the end of the presentation and set up a time with Greta to finish your project in the Makerspace. When the project is complete, you will receive a Google Forms exit ticket in order to receive a PDH certificate. The certificate can be emailed to
pdh@amerysd.k12.wi.us to receive credit.
