REVIEWING & EDITING 3D MODELSLOGISTICSIf working within a group, what will each student be working on?

It is SO IMPORTANT to explicitly teach students a namingstructure. It may include things like student name, class, project title, or even the color they wantto print in.How will students 3D models be reviewed? How will groups or classes decide which model toprint?Peer review, teacher review, paper print out CAD file, email review, over the shoulder check, expertreview, interviews?LIZ’S NOTES:Peer reviewing is a powerful way to help students engage with oneanother and learn from their counterparts. Doing projects like theseare not meant to be competitive. In the real world, collaboration isvalued way more than competition. Helping students see this willset them up for success. Students should be encouraged to revieweach other’s work and give feedback that is kind, specific and helpful.Check out this Students Peer Review Worksheet for TinkerCad:https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Student-Peerreview-worksheet-for-Tinkercad-file-4275058TIMING | REVIEWING & EDITING 3D MODELSHow much time will students have to edit their project?MAKERBOT EDUCATOR PROJECT PLANNING GUIDE PAGE 16
