“Everything you need to start teaching 3D Printing to your classes.”
Our Aim
The learning opportunities 3D Printers can bring to students and their lessons is truly breath taking. Whilst many schools are purchasing 3D Printers there is no ‘go to place’ for tried and tested resources that are proven in the classroom. Learnbylayers is a resource for teachers that has been created by teachers. Our aim is to support classroom teachers with high quality 3D Printing resources to improve the educational outcomes of their students. From lesson plans, power points, lesson tasks, design challenges and assessments, the learnbylayers curriculum is designed to give your students a fun and exciting experience whilst learning about 3D Printing. Our aim is simple, learnbylayers will teach your classes about 3D Printing with no planning needed by the teacher.
