In an article published by Inspiration Lab, Middle Years Programme (MYP) student Emily Schuster used a 3D printer to create prosthetic hands as the focus of her community project.
Emily created these prosthetic hands to contribute to a programme called Enabling the Future (E-nable). E-nable is a community of professionals, parents, students, and philanthropists who collaborate to assist people in need with 3D printable designs for hands and arms.
“I decided to 3D print prosthetic hands for E-nable because it touches me that I could be able to change a disaster victim’s life using my knowledge of technology and disaster response,” said Emily.
The community project focuses on community and service, encouraging students to explore their right and responsibility to implement service in the community.
