Today I helped a Special Needs teacher at Salisbury to get her students playing video games. We've been working on this project off and on for some time, but it was nice to finally see some things come together.
Jill had gotten an email from Brentwood Elementary yesterday about them not being able to clean the filters in their projectors, and they didn't know who to get in touch with about that. So I stopped by there to adjust the way the projectors were mounted; now they can blow the dust of the front and back filters.
I dropped off at SCS a couple of iPad sound deflectors that I had printed on our MakerBot. Unfortunately the MakerBot's extruder has been stopping occasionally, so I need to take apart the hot end and replace the plunger.
Today was also the last of the Scratch Day logistics, things like moving tables and sending thank you notes.
This afternoon there was a brief meeting about possibilities for digital textbooks and other resources. We brainstormed about what the requirements might be, and what recommendations we can make.
I also spoke with the Manager of Youth Services for the Strathcona County Library about some possibilities for a summer Maker program.
