![]() One completely printed and assembled engine (as a sample for students to see).At the end of the week, each student was able to take his or her engine home. As part of the camp, students used CAD software to re-create the different parts of the engine, printed them out on 3D printers, assembled their engines and designed Lego projects that could be powered by their engines. We used an engine design developed by Eli Smith, one of my husband's former university students. The camp, designed for 6th-12th graders, introduced students to 3D printing while they learned about internal combustion engines. This lesson is adapted from a week-long camp that my husband and I designed and led this past summer. use building bricks to design something that their engines can power.see examples of what engines are able to do.assemble a working 3D-printed, air-powered engine. ![]() see how engines are manufactured today.learn about the history of the internal combustion engine.use Tinkercad to design and print several engine pieces.In this multi-day lesson 6th-12th grade students will learn about internal combustion engines and will create their own working 3D-printed air-powered 4-cylinder internal combustion engines.
