High school engineering teacher Doug Scott explains the basics of how 3D printing works and what it can create, as demonstrated at the USPTO’s National Summer Teachers Institute. Viewers see a classroom perspective on 3D design turning into physical objects with a 3D printer. This video introduces additive manufacturing principles in an accessible way, inspiring students to imagine inventing and prototyping their own designs with 3D printing. Learners will discover how digital models are transformed into real items layer by layer, learn the steps from design to printed product, and understand the inventive mindset behind classroom 3D printing projects.
