Projects

This page contains some of the materials for projects created by students during the Design for Educational Aids spring course. The materials include descriptions, lesson plans, and 3D-printable files. However, we do not have a full collection of the students' projects, since this was the first time we tried to gather them for an online repository, and was assembled after the course.
