Printable School Physical: Fill & Download for Free

Just Google “printable high school diploma”. You can download one.It won’t mean anything. It doesn’t need to. No one ever asks to see the physical diploma. Applications want the name of a school so they can contact them. The piece of paper is just for you to hang on your wall or toss in the back of a closet.If you want something meaningful, take the GED (About the GED® Test, Test Prep, Study Material and More). Or take a class or three at a community college. Then you can check off “some college” which will be better than a high school diploma, real or fake.If you mean you want to actually graduate from high school, many states have a “Maximum age limit to which free education must be offered” that’s surprisingly high. The average is 20–21. Though it’s 17 in Alabama, it’s 26 in Texas. Table 5.1. Compulsory school attendance laws, minimum and maximum age limits for required free education, by state: 2015.

Not sure about branding, but for education, have a look at the following sections from 'Adventures in 3D Printing.'Printing in Education“Plastics, my boy, plastics.”This 1960s piece of career advice, given to Dustin Hoffman's character in The Graduate, resonates with a new generation of makers and hackers nearly fifty years later. Talk of 3D printers is everywhere—in print, on the web, on television, and now set to arrive in the classrooms of schools, colleges, and universities. Schools Across the globe, schools are finding useful ways to incorporate 3D printing in their curricula. Sometimes it is passionate individual teachers that are introducing printers into the classroom, no small sacrifice on a teacher’s salary. One story that really impressed me was that of Wayne Caudle, director of technologies at Boaz schools in Alabama. During the replacement of their computer network, none of the mounts that came with the new switches would fit flush to the walls. Caudle was told by a local machine shop that custom made mounts would be between $5 and $8 a piece. For a total of 364 mounts, this would be in the region of $2,000. Instead, he spent the $2,000 on a Makerbot Replicator 2 and printed them out for less than a nickel a piece, ensuring that the machine paid for itself on its very first job. Leading the charge among manufacturers is Airwolf, who has already helped put 3D printers in many classrooms around the world, from middle and high schools in the United States to universities in the Middle East and trade schools in China.Figure 100. The Airwolf AW3D V5Airwolf clearly understands that what is lacking in schools these days are opportunities to apply maths and science to the practical fields of engineering and industrial design. 3D printing creates ways to reengage students with STEM programs (Science-Technology-Engineering-Maths). Even more importantly, it fires imaginations. During the last few decades, many schools gave up their metalworking and woodworking departments for more intellectual career paths. Lathes, mills, drilling machines, and even CNC equipment were let go and sold on, due to a lack of technical capacity in the teaching staff. Hopefully, the introduction of 3D printers can help to reverse this trend, especially as the manufacturing base of a country is unable to expand unless the leaders make a serious investment in education. This technology assists a wide variety of disciplines. Medical students can fabricate three-dimensional molecular models, architecture majors can create physical representations of their designs, and fine art students can 3D print real life examples of their designs. Just as art students create a portfolio of their work, I wonder how long it will be before we see engineering students assembling portfolios of 3D printed objects to show prospective employers or universities. Will high school students begin including a custom 3D printed object with their applications to engineering colleges to demonstrate their CAD accomplishments and abilities? These days, few students have the opportunity to take apart automobile engines and it is unlikely that they can take apart an iPod like they could a radio. Designing and printing engine parts in the shop, on the other hand, shows students what the actual inside of an engine looks like. It is very empowering for a young person to actually build something, and it is even more remarkable how prolific they become once they gain the ability to turn their 3D designs into real physical objects. We have already seen, in both the US and the UK, what happens when we create an excess of MBAs and so called finance whizzes, and then let them loose on the real estate markets. It is very easy to see the new doors that are being opened in the young minds that are exposed to 3D printing. I read about one class that printed a miniature working catapult to study the physics of velocity. Students in this particular program even showed increased vocabulary. This kind of study also offers the chance to improve spatial intelligence, something that is often overlooked in public education. A 3D printed object held in the hands of the student-designer can bridge the important gap between simple visual perception and three-dimensional spatial visualization. This ability is key to bolstering the current scientific and technical workforce. This technology can be utilized to bring a great deal of ingenuity into any classroom. Just imagine, for example, a youngster developing an Arduino platform and a case to go around it using a 3D printer, thereby creating a hand-held device to analyze bacteria in the air. Science projects of the future are going to become a whole lot more interesting, thanks to 3D printing. One of the most important things that youngsters need to learn is about the limitations of their tools. I have talked extensively about this in the previous chapter, explaining that we can design anything you want on the computer, but we do not always have the machines to create it. Another key lesson is that of nomenclature, all the names of those fiddly engineering parts. Knowing what an item looks like is one thing, but figuring out what to call it, so that it can be ordered from a catalog, can be a real challenge. A recent announcement by the UK Minister of Education stated that all secondary schools (ages eleven and up) will be required to have a 3D printer and introduce children to laser cutters and robotics in the design and technology course. As yet, there has been no indication from where funding for these developments will come. 3D printing is able to help students understand and learn core STEM principles, but it also allows teachers to bring in cheap, easily made visuals that assist the learning process in almost any subject. 3D printing will revolutionize education, empower invention, enable experimentation, and invigorate our rural economy. The technology is perfect for dreamers, tinkerers, inventors, educators, artists, architects, designers, entrepreneurs, and renovators. Printables enable teachers and students to answer complex questions and demonstrate their answers in three dimensions. They can solve real-world problems by constructing and experimenting with a variety of possible solutions. Language teachers can print out physical representations of objects rather than simply handing out vocabulary lists. This allows kinaesthetic learners to use their sense of touch as a valuable aid to memory, something that is ignored by most commercial textbooks. Geography teachers can print out topography, demographic, or population maps, while history teachers can print out facsimiles of historical artifacts for classroom examination and discussion. Instead of just showing a picture of a medieval tool or a King's seal, students will be able to handle copies of the actual objects. In science classes, such as biology and chemistry, students will be able to print 3D models of molecules, DNA, bacteria, cells, viruses, and even organs. Complex excel graphs might be easier for accountancy students to read if they were printed in 3D to look like wireframe buildings using cubes of colored resins. Maths students could work on data visualizations that put simple numbers and formulas into tactile form. Students in cookery classes will be able to create all kinds of original molds, and the list just goes on and on. All we need now is for those of us with 3D printers to get into schools and start showing teachers how to make the best use of this technology. Another manufacturer, Afinia, has teamed with Pitsco Education to make a start by offering an affordable 3D printer combined with curriculum and activity materials. As well as important back up services such as a one-year warranty and telephone support, the package includes a custom designed “3D Printing: Designing and Prototyping: curriculum that includes three weeks of hands-on lessons and activity materials. Colleges and Universities A team at Michigan Technology University have begun work on a library of open source printable optics for study in a laboratory setting. In addition to providing the STL files, the authors point out that such printable equipment could make scientific experimentation much more affordable and efficient. At present the cost of outfitting an undergraduate teaching laboratory with thirty optics set ups including a 1 m optical tracks, optical lens, adjustable lens holder, ray optical kit, and viewing screen, costs about $15,000 for commercially available equipment. In comparison, the total cost using the open-source optics approach is about $500, providing over $14,500 in savings. The study found cost reductions of more than 97 percent, with some components costing only 1 percent of the market price for products of similar function. In addition, commercial suppliers can take weeks to deliver orders. With open source printables, there is no sales tax, shipping costs, or waiting for parts to come into stock. An experimenter may not know so far in advance exactly what type of equipment will be required. Printables solve that problem by making individual pieces completely on demand.

Thank you, my friend, for asking me to reply to your question. Good Afternoon.Well, for the first time in our nation’s history, our returning veterans from a foreign war were greeted at the airports with angry protests, people calling them “baby killer”, “rapist”, “war monger”, among some of the more printable epithets.These veterans had just returned from Vietnam, and constantly on guard, never knowing where was, or who was the enemy. Then, they set foot in America. And, they learned, painfully well, their worst enemies were Americans.It got so bad, American veterans were advised to return home in civilian clothing, so the uniform they so proudly wore in combat, wouldn’t entice Americans to violence, both physical and verbal.It got so bad, our veterans were becoming drug addicts, and alcoholics. These are but a short step from an overt attempt of suicide. And, the returning American veteran to the United States of America did commit suicide. And, they committed suicide in staggering numbers never seen before.A few of the more perceptive American citizens quite appropriately wondered, “Did we do that?”Well, in answer to that question, yes, we did do that. And, we were damned good at it, too.I am seventy years old, now. I grew up in the Vietnam War era. I never attended a war protest. I never burned my draft card. (It sort of fell apart on me, due to old age, when I was more than fifty years old.) I dutifully reported for my Pre Induction Physical Examination. I was found to be 1A. And, I waited to be drafted.I saw the protests on television. I saw the army helicopters spraying tear gas on the rioting protesters. I saw the returning soldiers attempt to run the gauntlet of protesters who were shoving, slapping, spitting on, and roundly cursing men who had been in combat, only 24 hours earlier, to land in America, and face combat, again.We were forced to bury so many of our returning veterans from Vietnam, society finally figured out that bullying our returning troops wasn’t exactly a life promoting idea.Now, if we can just stop the bullying in our schools, maybe we won’t have to bury so damned many little suicidal kids.Sir Winston Churchill accurately described Americans, when he said, “You can always count on Americans to do the right thing…after they’ve tried everything else, first.”I hope you have a pleasant Afternoon, my friend.
