“…Other advantages identified in the research literature on the educational use of software are the work environment ( Dolenc and Aberšek, 2012 ; Lee and Kim, 2013 ), dialogue, debate and negotiation among peers ( Panorkou and Pratt, 2016 ; Capraro et al., 2018 ), and the ease of obtaining realistic results through using colours and textures for the design of the different elements ( Ramadhanty and Handayani, 2020 ).…”

This article reflects the opinion of future Early Childhood Education teachers at the Universidad de C adiz on the usefulness and degree of satisfaction of SketchUp, a 3D modelling software programme, after they participated in a workshop for didactic-mathematical training. They had to use the software to design and model their ideal nursery school in 3D, supported by clearly stated and well-defined educational pillars. This study aims to ascertain the students' perceptions of the use of this resource with the intention of assessing its suitability to offer more appropriate initial training regarding mathematics education. It seeks to make the most of using the software programme and minimise the obstacles encountered. Opinions were collected from a sample of 203 students who responded to two questionnaires designed ad hoc. The results are organised around a SWOT analysis and show a satisfactory global evaluation.

“…introduced STEM Procsi strategies in learning, while the application of STEM models and their effects on learning has been developed including. The application of STEM models carried out in secondary schools can foster student interest in learning (Capraro et al, 2018;Reinking & Martin, 2018;Yildirim, B., & Türk, 2018). In this study will implement the MEA integrated STEM learning model Terminology MEA consists of 3 words element, namely: Means many ways, End end or goal, and Analysis which means analysis or investigate systematically (Sari, Alici, & Sen, 2018).…”

Low computational thinking skills cause students to have difficulty solving problems. This study aims to analyze whether there is an increase in students' CT abilities using the STEM-oriented MEA model with conventional learning. The research method is an experiment using an experimental group of 30 students and a control class of 32 students. The research instrument uses questionnaires and rubrics to assess students' CT abilities. The results of the T-test analysis used are Equal variances not assumed, which is 0.000 (Sig. (2-tailed)) > 0.05 means There is an increase in student's CT abilities using the STEM-oriented MEA model with conventional learning, so There is an increase in student's CT abilities using the STEM-oriented MEA model with conventional learning. Thus, there is an increase in the ability of students to think computationally using the STEM-oriented MEA model with conventional learning.

Although 3D printing (3DP) technology has become an increasingly popular educational tool in recent years, very little is known about the learning benefits of this technology. This systematic literature review synthesized empirical research on learning with 3DP in various educational settings, focusing on publication and study participants' characteristics, curriculum areas, research methodologies, instructional approaches, educational outcomes and benefits. A comprehensive survey of published and unpublished studies identified 78 empirical studies that met the inclusion criteria. In addition to positive effects on learning, 3DP facilitated innovative curriculum development and created opportunities for cross‐disciplinary research. The findings revealed five major trends in 3DP learning: (1) prepare a new generation of engineers, (2) democratize additive manufacturing technology and production, (3) support learning using low‐cost 3D printed learning aids, (4) produce assistive technologies, and (5) promote creativity and innovation. The review identifies critical gaps in the literature and offers suggestions for future research.
