MakerBot Teacher Giveaway Announced!
We’re very excited to announce the 10 teachers who will receive a MakerBot!
- Deborah Schenberger from the University of Portland, in Oregon USA
- Nicholas Cady from Centaurus High in Colorado USA
- Bryan Ross from Reeths-Puffer High School in Michigan USA
- Walter Janssens from KdG – Depart. Industrial Sciences and Technology in Belgium

These teachers will have a MakerBot 3D printer in their classroom are instantly one of the most innovative teachers in the world. We hope these teachers will inspire others to empower young people to make things! As we mentioned in the original blogpost, we expect these teachers to join the MakerBot Educators Google Group and document their experiences with the MakerBot so that other teachers can be inspired. We’ll be checking in on these teachers during the year and we hope to report back and let the public know what it’s like to have a MakerBot in class!
Thank you to everyone who applied, there were over 100 applicants and it was very hard to decide who to give it to because there were so many quality submissions!

…that google group has discussions hidden to non-members.
I’m not a teacher but would like to read more about this stuff. Is it kosher for anybody to join the group or would you rather keep it educators-only?

Congrats, teachers!
Will they each get a ToM or a Cupcake?

Feel free to go ahead and join the group! It’s open to anyone interested in education and MakerBots!
We originally said cupcake deluxe kits, but since they are gone, they’ll be a starter kit with a MK5 and a heated build platform… so almost an ultimate!
