EFFECTIVE USE OF 3D PRINTING TECHNOLOGY IN TACKLING CHALLENGES IN EDUCATION FOR DEVELOPING COUNTRIES

Abstract

The innovative progresses within the world nowadays have driven to the improvement of approaches and strategies that are imaginative within the conveyance of instructive substance. The utilization of advances like mixed media has greatly improved the teaching and learning processes which as a result have made education curiously and consequently propelling. 3D printing is one of the innovations that have as of now begun to invade into numerous scholarly circles. The advancement of 3D printing innovation encompasses a parcel of potential for application in developing countries especially the education sector. When it comes to later innovations, the focal points of 3D printing make it one of the foremost promising advances. This work examines the openings, challenges and prospects of application of 3D printing innovation in education in developing countries. In these developing countries, 3D printing offers numerous benefits especially in the educational sector. These benefits include but are not limited to improving the students learning process and experience as well as improving the teaching capabilities of the teacher. Hence the need to deploy 3D printing in the curriculum of developing countries is undeniable.
