3D Printing in the classroom
3D printing in a classroom can open up so many possibilities on learning for students. It’s a new way of integrating students into a new way of learning. Technological advancements allows for new ways of using 3d printing. I really enjoyed looking through the Thingiverse website. It shares so many ideas on how to be able to incorporate 3D printing into your own classroom. It was very easy to navigate as well as all the ideas given opened up the great possibilities for its use. Tinkercad is another website very beneficial for 3D printing in the classroom. Tinkercad would be a website that allows students to get creative. It allows them to come up with their own ideas of what they may want to create then print. This can create a greater desire for students to want to learn subjects. It sets the classroom environment into a place where learning can be fun.

Where 3D printing has yet to really make a huge impact, but provides an ample amount of opportunity, is within educational institutions. These range from elementary schools to high schools, universities, and maker spaces around the globe. One reason that 3D printing has been quite slow in making its impact in these institutions is simply because of the lack of knowledge of the technology. Therefore, we have learn some basic knowledge in 3D printing technology and will need to update our information or database so that we can bring this piece of technology into schools!!
