Harmon, Derek J.; Klein, Barbie A.; Im, Cecilia; Romero, Dylan – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2022
Three-dimensional (3D) printing technology has become more affordable, accessible, and relevant in healthcare, however, the knowledge of transforming medical images to physical prints still requires some level of training. Anatomy educators can play a pivotal role in introducing learners to 3D printing due to the spatial context inherent to…

Hofierka, Jaroslav; Gallay, Michal; Šupinský, Jozef; Gallayová, Gabriela – Education and Information Technologies, 2022
Geography education requires a combination of knowledge, skills, and geospatial relational thinking. To improve the learning efficiency and durability of knowledge, a new inquiry-based instruction system using tangible user interfaces has been developed. The tangible landscape modeling system (TLMS) comprises four components including a malleable…

Haas, Ben; Kreis, Yves; Lavicza, Zsolt – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2021
This paper reports on a case study of two elementary school students with mathematical learning disabilities (MLD) (ages 10 and 11) using augmented reality (AR), digital and physical modelling in mathematics class. MLD students worked on modelling geometric shapes (cubes, cuboids, squared pyramids, and octahedrons) and forms (polygons) by…

Lohning, Anna E.; Hall, Susan; Dukie, Shailandra – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
Students often approach biochemistry with a degree of trepidation with many considering it one of the more difficult subjects. This is, in part, due to the necessity of making visual images of submicroscopic concepts. Molecular interactions underpin most biological processes; therefore, mastering these concepts is essential. Understanding the…

Katsio-Loudis, Petros; Jones, Millie – Technology and Engineering Teacher, 2015
Many articles have been published on the use of 3D printing technology. From prefabricated homes and outdoor structures to human organs, 3D printing technology has found a niche in many fields, but especially education. With the introduction of AutoCAD technical drawing programs and now 3D printing, learners can use 3D printed models to develop…
