3D Printer Technology

Technology has been on the rise for numerous years! With today's technology, we have been introduced to the 3D printer! 3D printing has brought a whole new thought to technology. You can design and create anything you want! Before any of that can happen, there is much studying and preparation that needs to be done. 3D printing will change the way that we can live our lives because we will be able to create what we want straight from a machine. It could possibly take away the labor for some jobs, because it will be able to create the object on its own. Now, obviously it will not be able to create the big objects in life, so the labor force for those tasks will always be available.

3D printing will and has changed they way some schools may operate. For example, schools will be able to print 3D object for there class to use as visual aids. This will help the school communities because they will be able to offer resources through the new and developed technology! This type of technology should be easy to understand and use, because you download what you want to use, transfer it to the printer, and it will do all the work for you. While the 3D printer is still new to the latest technology, there may be some issues that can occur. New technology always has bugs that occur when the product first comes out. It will take time for this product to become fully effective, and when it does; it will be a big part of the future!

    3-D printing is definitely a cool thing. The be able to design any item that you want without having to make something with your own skill set is incredible. It certainly effects the labor force but thankfully it hasnt completely wiped out some jobs in the working industry. On the side of education this technology is amazing! to be able to create visual aids for a lesson plan provides great resources for teachers. I agree as we continue to update this new technology it will only get better.

    I have to agree, technology is on the rise! As good as that is we must be careful not to let it overrun our labor force into a place of disintegration, causing even further issues with job stability and economics. That said educationally it is enhancing our knowledge in ways we never thought possible, and is opening new visions for ways to incorporate it with our teaching. It is fairly easy to understand once you've seen the process, but like you stated nothing is without it's bugs.
