Those lightbulb moments when a new concept clicks are what a lot of educators say keep them going. Intervention Specialist Elena North and Occupational Therapist Maddy Schnabel recently got a front row seat to see their student, Cy, write his name for the first time - something that was possible because of the custom assistive device they designed and 3-D printed to enable him to use crayons, markers, and pens, just like his peers. In this episode, Maddy and Elena share their ongoing journey to overcome challenges to help unlock Cy's potential. And they share their dreams for Cy's future: Whatever he dreams for himself.\nSEE CY IN ACTION | Click here to watch the Ohio School Spotlight video featuring Cy's story, or watch this short social media video to see Cy using his new assistive device for yourself.\nEXPLORE THE POSSIBILITIES | Educators who are considering whether 3-D printed devices can help their students are welcome to pick Maddy and Elena's brains about what they've learned so far in the design and printing process.
