This keynote was presented during a breakout session at Stanford University's FabLearn 2014 conference. During the session, I shared stories about 3D printing with kids around the world, and walked participants through an abbreviated version of the City X Project, a 3D printing and design thinking curriculum for kids created by IDEAco.
