These are some truly amazing students!
This class was made possible by the CU Science Discovery summer STEM program. My course materials and lesson plans are completely open to the public. Course Materials We made up some social games using 3D printing like: racing the printers (so you have to optimize your design), making up every day problems and then challenging a group to solve it using only 3D printing, printing something that 'represents you' and having the class guess who's is who's, and doing a 'secret santa' type game. The crux of the course was designing a 3D printable final project that benefits the world in some way. We mainly used TinkerCAD, and the last lecture includes a lesson on how to program shapes in TinkerCAD with JavaScript. There are also introductory AutoCAD & Blender lessons. Enjoy. Played around with voronoi parcellations in blender.

ATLAS at CU-Boulder hosted a great emoting wearables workshop. In under 45 minutes, our team prototyped a device you wear on your shoulder which senses your temperature and blinks an LED and starts a small vibrator (on the shoulder) when your temperature crosses a certain threshold. Kinda weird, but a lot of fun.
We use the Arduino lilypad.
