Hi Kevin,
Love all of these ideas and second the FabLearn e-book recommend!
The laser cutter is my favorite machine for its reliability and power as a learning tool. For the laser in particular, we have been working with design problems that require students to move between 2D to 3D. They visualize their form, design it flat in Illustrator and build in 3D. In order to do this, they have to measure and do the math for connections and joints. They also need to consider material width, think spatially for mirroring shapes, and visualize how the shapes fit. We build in time for prototyping so they can redesign as necessary. The fact that vector cutting is so quick makes the laser an ideal machine for this process.
Best of luck!
-Erin

I would also like to ask which software kids are using to design. Especially young kids. I can see tinkercad and Inkscape at either end of the spectrum. Anything in between?Tim Cooper
