Logistic

Educational

We had security constraints

with metal objects

We wanted to "create"

whatever we need

The Power of 3D- Printing in Math Education

Do "your own" mathematics!

Learn to own your life!

The POWER

Comment from "outside"

Today I discovered a "new" mathematics,

made not only of numbers and rules,

but also of so much passion and humanity.

A "living mathematics" that "leaves the mark"

Thank you!!!

Letters from "inside"

Letter from "inside"

This project brought into my life

something unique and unimaginable.

I didn't believe I could reach so much,

and this makes me understand that

also I have the skills and possibility

to yearn for a future rich of occasions,

and to give a turning point to my life.

I thank my teacher prof. Daniela Ferrarello

because I am a shy guy and I succeded to

enter in relation with people, this was always

my flaw, and I can guarantee you that followING

this project is a very important thing.

I THANK PROF. DANIELA FERRARELLO, WHO WITH

THIS PROJECT BROUGHT ME OUTSIDE WITH MY MIND

IN THIS NEGATIVE PERIOD OF MY LIFE

AND MATHEMATICS IS NOT ONLY NUMBERS
