I saw this servo linear actuator idea online & designed one myself, cut on Glowforge. It was fiddly to get some of the sizing correct, but worth it. Excited for some Micro:bit Educational Foundation projects to use it on. #makered

I’m excited about combining the power of Micro:bit Educational Foundation and Glowforge to make a DIY moisture sensor. Excited to use this with G5. #makereducation #stemeducation

The Auto Chime Dinging Noise-O-Meter powered by Micro:bit Educational Foundation , uses a microphone sensor to determine when the servo should whack the chime. A simple but really rewarding project. #microbit #STEMeducation #makereducation

Great to see 2 of my favourite makers, Cora Yang and Jason Erdreich recognised by Tinkercad for the work they do with students. #makereducation

Quick explanation of the Micro:bit Educational Foundation moisture sensor I prototyped this week. The microbit measures the current diff in the soil to show relative moisture. #microbit #microbitprojects #makereducation #stemeducation

I’m using this image to talk to students about the prototyping process I use - 1 draw and revise - 2 cheap recycled materials check fit and revise - 3 final product in high quality material. #makereducation #stemeducation #makerspace

These precedent studies for dowels allow students to work out the best sizes independently. We made a lot of such things at @themv_mde, so grateful to have worked at cody carroll it's an amazing school. #makereducation #stemeducation

Little bit of creative Laser fun this evening. I found some skewers and wondered if they’d make good axles for a tiny car… Glowforge #glowforge #makereducation #stemeducation

Experimenting with bringing @procreate creations into real life using the Cricut. Excited to share these ideas with our art team. #makereducation #stemeducation #steameducation

Sometimes I feel like I’m living in the Matrix… but at least I have this cool poker chip I made on the Glowforge . #taketheredpill #makersgonnamake

The “Doorknob Guard Dog” got a fancy facelift using the Glowforge . We will use this example to show students how you can increase resolution while still using the same material. #makereducation #stemeducation

I’m lucky enough to be at the #GoogleChampions symposium in Singapore helped create this idea wall. If you’ve ever been in an office I’ve worked in in the last 10 years you will have seen a version of this, it was really exciting to share it with others.

What messages do we send students in relation to digital citizenship, modelling the behaviours we want is so important. Thank you Danai Maramba #GoogleChampions SSIS

My design process from initial sketch, to vector file creation in @inkscapeofficial and finally cutting on the Cricut . It’s nice to see it all in one sequence. #makersgonnamake #makereducation #cricutmade @cricut_sgmy

The Glowforge came in handy today to tidy up the makerspace, and help us keep track of these canary cutters. #glowforgecreations #makereducation

Working on a servo scissor mechanism. this is a great way to show transfer of rotational movement into lateral movement. The servo only turns 180 degrees, the gears move 2.5 cm, but the arm moves about 10cm - 4 times the movement. #makereducation #makerspace #makersgonnamake

Cardboard to drawing to robotic movement. This is a little passion project to use with the Micro:bit Educational Foundation . This year I’m trying to document my process more so that I can share it with students to help with prototyping. #makereducation #microbit #makersgonnamake

Singapore teachers, join us for #pubpdasia on October 10, always a great night and plenty of great minds to mingle with.

I have a @beebotco project I’m working on, but need a custom field, so I created these laser cut puzzle tiles that fit together in any configuration. Excited for the next step. #STEMeducation #makereducation

#PubPDasia Singapore tribe is a bit low on numbers today, but we’re excited to dive into the AI discussion.
