Verification of how to utilize digital fabrication in developing STEAM educational content based on traditional crafts

Abstract

This research examined specific ways to utilize digital fabrication for the purpose of developing STEAM educational content based on traditional crafts. We have devised a method for editing 3D data measured with a 3D scanner and a method for measuring the human head using a 3D scanner.As a result of this result, we were able to conduct a class for 76 elementary school students and an extracurricular activity for 8 high school students using the technique of Fukuoka's traditional craft, Hakata Hariko, and digital fabrication.
