Explore. Build. Learn.

Dremel Dreams integrates specially designed curriculum and lesson plans with activities centered on invention, design, modeling and building. A remarkable thing happens when students connect a physical model with an abstract concept. They engage more deeply and build new knowledge and skills that they can retain and apply.

That’s the way learning with technology is supposed to work.

The technology tools that work best in today’s classrooms are highly interactive, such as digital whiteboards, com-puters and tablets. The Dremel 3D Idea Builder harnesses the power of interactivity with the challenges of problem-solving and critical thinking to open a new world of learning for students.

DreamsDremel Dreams introduces a breakthrough new approach to digital technology in the classroom.The program utilizes 3D printing, lesson plans and hands-on learning to transform abstract concepts into physical models. Students become more engaged in the process of design, invention and creation to develop the essential skills necessary for the 21st century information age. Dremel Dreams challenges and inspires students and teachers to…

Design materials.Research new ideas.Enhance curriculum.Activate imagination.Motivate each other.Shape a better future.

What is 3D Printing?The earliest 3D printing technologies �rst emerged in the late 1980’s. They’ve come a long way. Today, 3D printing is commonly referred to as “additive manufac-turing”, in which an object is created by laying down successive layers of material until complete. Think of each layer as a thinly sliced cross-section of the �nal object.

The Dremel 3D Idea Builder uses a speci�c technology called Fused Filament Fabrication. With this process, the printhead or “extruder” heats or “melts” a spool-fed �lament so it lays the �lament down easily. This heated �lament then quickly cools and hardens so the next layer can be applied.

"Using 3D technology takes what we learn in class to a whole new level. The children are more inspired to learn about the various parts of an animal cell and its functions when they simultaneously watch the construction and formation of a 3D animal cell. Incorporating this type of technology into their learning allows them to make connections from what they are learning in class to the greater world around them."

– Chaidan Leshinski, 5th Grade Math, Joseph Sears School

3D Modeling SoftwareStudents and teachers can create their models using a computer and a 3D modeling program such as Tinkercad and 123D Design. There are many options available that make designing 3D objects easy, instructional and fun. Once a model is created, the design �le is then sent to the 3D printer. The printer forms the digital model into a real, tangible object students can hold, study and analyze.

3D Printing Unlocks Multidimensional LearningWith 3D printing, students can build 21st century learning skills or absorb learning through hands-on activities, resulting in the development of new knowledge.

EngagementFrom design thinking to assembling printed objects, students fully engage in project-based learning.

UnderstandingLarger, more complicated concepts are presented in individual parts for easier, sca�olded comprehension.

RetentionLearning connects to real life experiences so it’s more memorable and meaningful for students.

Critical Thinking3D printing empowers students to think rationally and critically about

the models they create.It inspires forward thinking as students solve problems and

practice real time troubleshoot-ing. Creativity

Creativity ranks among the most important business skill today. From

conceptualizing to designing a model, students are required to push the boundaries and create real world

solutions.

CollaborationStudents work in small groups to

conceptualize, design and prepare print models in 3D.

Working together e�ciently and leveraging each other’s strengths is

real time career readiness. Communication

In the same 3D printing groups, students are working on multiple,

separate 3D creation tasks to achieve a common goal. Students develop their communication skills to lead, contribute, and collaborate more

e�ectively.

Science no longer has to be diagrams and charts but rather tangible models of complex, modi�-

able concepts.

Science

3D technology can be used to build models and prototypes of mechanical, architectural and artistic designs to further practical understanding.

Technology

Geography, Art, Design…all subjects can be transformed to challenge students to think

di�erently and more critically.

EngineeringFrom combustion engines to drones, students can design and engineer using hands-on trial and error learning.

MathMath can now become an interactive subject in

which students can integrate learnings and heighten their problem-solving skills.

3D Printing – A Major Catalyst for STEM Learning and Innovation3D printing promotes 21st century learning and is growing as a fundamental technology to master in STEM �elds. Combined with other virtual resources, students of today are preparing for the jobs of tomorrow in order to reach new levels of thinking and problem-solving.

Why ?

Critical Thinking • Creativity • Collaboration • CommunicationAll projects (3 grade clusters) will begin with a design challenge, so that students gain experience with the entire 3D printing process: designing with Autodesk software, printing, �nishing, and re-designing if needed to achieve the desired outcome and pass the lesson.

Developing 21st Century Learning Skills

Ex. Design a picture frame with frame’s dimensions, color, materials, and style, calculating the angle where the frame is joined at each corner.

Ex. Design sunglasses while learning about the eye and the harmful e�ects of UV rays.

Ex. Design a reusable water �lter after learning about the earth’s limited supply of drinking water, �ltration, and di�erent materials to �lter water.
