Mrs. McGraw's 3D printing lessons were highlighted by the Illinois State Board of Education Learning Technology Center's one-to-one podcast "Student Voices."The podcast the Farmingdale students were involved in has just been released!!  The podcast is just under 45 minutes long and is fantastic! To keep students' identity private, Linda, the narrator, changed each student's name to an alias that began with the same letter as the student's first name.
