Integrating industrial design and 3d printing for active learning in higher education mathematics
This study investigates aims to transform the teaching of abstract mathematical concepts into meaningful learning experiences for Academic Life and Unadista University Life by integrating industrial design and 3D printing technology. The process is developed through four methodological stages: concept teaching, identification of opportunities to design educational resources, development of 3D printed pieces, and preliminary evaluation of the “Algebra Tiles” educational tools, both physical and digital. This process demonstrates how educational pieces can facilitate tangible understanding of complex mathematical structures. Preliminary results suggest that using physical models, such as "Algebra Tiles," enhances students' visuospatial and cognitive skills, significantly improving their learning.
