Imagine it. Build it.
Bring it back to your classroom.

 

Your students have ideas every day. This session lets you take home a clear workflow that helps them turn those ideas into real, tangible objects.

You’ll learn how text-to-image tools, basic 3D modeling techniques, and standard 3D printing software work together in a simple, classroom-ready process.

It’s also a chance to enjoy a creative recharge on a Sunday afternoon.

Throughout the session, you’ll try the tools, see what the process feels like, and spark new ideas for how this approach can support:

  • project-based learning

  • STEM/STEAM exploration

  • visual arts and design integration

  • cross-disciplinary creative problem-solving

And you’ll finish the session with a real 3D-printed object you designed yourself — a tangible example for your classroom and a small personal memento you can keep or gift.

The Creative Journey

1

Design thinking fundamentals

Before you jump into any software, you’ll spend some time planning your idea—what it is, what it does, and who it’s for. The challenge is to create something functional, not just something that looks nice on screen.

2

Text-to-image AI generation

Here’s where your idea starts taking shape. You’ll use generative AI tools to turn written prompts into concept images that visualize what’s in your head. It’s the first time you’ll see your idea come to life on screen.

3

Image-to-3D mesh conversion

Next, you’ll take those concept images and convert them into 3D models. This step bridges imagination and reality—transforming something flat into a digital object that can exist in three dimensions.

4

Blender basics

You’ll refine and personalize your 3D model using Blender, a professional-grade (but free) design tool. This is where proportions, scale, and details get adjusted to make your design ready for printing.

5

3D printing prep

Finally, you’ll prepare your finished model for printing. You’ll learn how to optimize and export files to turn your design into a real, physical object.
