Let us create something with all of our newly acquired knowledge
You will create 3 dimensional (3D) models of atoms, molecules, and compounds.
First, I want you to take a second to realize how small the atoms are in comparison to the us, the planet, and the universe.
Then, you will take a quick tour of our 3D modeling tool and practice your skills with the tutorials.
Finally, you will take the challenge to create different molecules, and learn more about 3D printing and creating a model of your creation.
You are challenge to create a 3D model of any of these molecules.
Bonus points if you create a more complicated structure, like these.
Watch this video about 3D printing and think about the 3D model you just created. What else can you do with it? How can you improve it? What is the future of 3D printing.
When you are ready, share your 3D model with me and we will print it during class.
