I have a longtime daydream about a class that combines both

i just published my talk-turned-blogpost, discussing software that delights & amuses...desktop pets, older design philosophies that surrounded Clippy, & the place this has in modern games or software. The Joy of Silly Useless Software: https://t.co/M1YkdvZ2B2 RTs appreciated!🙏💕

With some blocks in the geometry library of TurtleStitch it's so easy to make designs for cardstock cutting and output as dxf files. Children made these triangular pyramids this afternoon. #turtlestitch

Customized Repetitions 🔢 Today we’re announcing a powerful new feature for working with repeated shapes in Cuttle...

In one of the final sections in the #RepairMindset #Toolkit, we explore objects in our everyday life that may be broken, and how we might be able to repair them, in a thoughtful way. Try this lesson with your students! Download resource at: https://t.co/WL6n9H58Ye #MakerEd

I want this SVG learning tool/sandbox to make it easy to learn how path commands work - dragging points won't act similar to in a typical design tool! to make it also useful as an editing tool, I added a way to convert the commands to absolute ones, which are a bit more familiar

So excited about this new interop between @CuttleXYZ and the origami simulator. Lots of possibilities for parametric origami design! 👇

There's just over a week left to enter the @Instructables Made with Math Contest! Teachers have a chance to win a Gift Card along with an Autodesk Innovators Kit for the Classroom! https://t.co/Lg5AAMVk6E

A client teaches her child with creative thinking. To encourage the child, she build the 3D model of toy bags from doodles from the kid and 3D print them out. They prepared to paint the bags together. 3D printing can be the best teaching aid. #3dprint #prototype #toy #teaching

This is a total and complete goldmine of Tinkercad tips. Concise explanations with helpful illustrative GIFs.

I'm thinking about the process so differently now that I've finally tried getting these off the screen. Many new thoughts and questions about the stitch order and stitch type, and where jump stitches happen. And of course, materials!

After many inspiring weeks of #teaandturtlestitch, finally found a moment for a first attempt with the embroidery machine. Right shapes came with the machine, left are #turtlestitch designs. I broke a needle, wonder why! Now pondering Euler path math and jump stitches...

I am sooo stoked to get to work on this! #digitalfab #papercircuits
