3D printers

01 Apr 2024

Podar International Schools are committed to providing their students with a well-rounded education that includes the latest technology. As a result, Podar International schools have 3D printers in their classrooms.

3D printers are a type of rapid prototyping machine that can create three-dimensional objects from a digital file. This technology has many potential applications in education, including:

  • Designing and prototyping: 3D printers can be used to design and prototype new products or parts. This can be a valuable tool for students in engineering, design, and other technical fields.
  • Problem-solving: 3D printers can be used to solve real-world problems. For example, students could use a 3D printer to create a prosthetic limb for a classmate or to design a new way to recycle plastic.
  • Creativity: 3D printers can be used to unleash students' creativity. Students can use 3D printers to create anything they can imagine, from toys and games to jewellery and sculptures.

In Podar International Schools, 3D printers are used in a variety of ways. For example, students in the engineering program use 3D printers to design and prototype new products. Students in the design program use 3D printers to create prototypes of their designs. And students in the art program use 3D printers to create sculptures and other works of art.

The use of 3D printers in Podar International Schools is helping students to develop their critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity skills. It is also helping students to learn about the latest technology and how it can be used to solve real-world problems.

Here are some of the benefits of using 3D printers in schools:

  • Increased student engagement: 3D printing is a hands-on activity that can help to increase student engagement. Students are more likely to be interested in learning if they are able to see the results of their work.
  • Improved problem-solving skills: 3D printing can help students to develop their problem-solving skills. Students need to be able to think critically and creatively in order to design and print objects.
  • Increased creativity: 3D printing can help students to express their creativity. Students can use 3D printers to create anything they can imagine, from toys and games to jewellery and sculptures.
  • Real-world applications: 3D printing has many real-world applications. Students who learn about 3D printing will be better prepared for jobs in engineering, design, and other technical fields.
