3D Printing in Education Literature Review
Use the Carpenter Library website to locate current journal articles (past 3-5 years) in peer-reviewed journals. I found over 10,000 articles using the search term “3D printing in education,” limited to peer reviewed journals from 2010 to 2016. You may consider narrowing your review to:
- • specific curricular areas
- • the impact of 3D printing on student learning
- • adoption of 3D printers in educational settings
- • the use of 3D design tools for student learning
- • the overall influence of 3D printing in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (and Art and design if you wish to add it)
- • how libraries are utilizing and controlling student/patron 3D printing
- • the use of 3D printing for special needs populations, including ELL students
- • other instructor approved topics
Write a 7-8 page (not including cover and reference pages) literature review using APA formatting. A good source for the APA style can be found at the OWL website: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/01/
