The Human-Centered Design (HCD) methodology seeks to analyze a problem from a more open, dynamic, and creative point of view. In the educational context, the HCD allows the creation of experiences that integrate theory and practice. In addition, the HCD method encourages the active participation of students. This work describes, an experience of a work developed using the HCD methodology with a Service-Learning approach in the context of the STEMbach projects offered by the Polytechnic School of Engineering of Ferrol (EPEF) of the University of A Coruña. Specifically, it describes the development of a project of Design, Modeling and 3D Printing with students from the Tirso de Molina School of Ferrol. The objective of the project was the creation of didactic resources to help children of the first cycle of primary education (6-8 years old) with difficulties in the process of reading and writing. A total of 4 students worked as a team, supervised by two teachers of the school. The project was directed by five university teachers.
