You may have heard about all the cool things 3D printers can do. If you're a math teacher, maybe you've thought about letting your students make their own manipulatives or get hands-on in geometry with 3D solids. If you're an economics or business teacher, perhaps you've considered assigning students a project to design, market and sell their own 3D-printed products. Or maybe you're a science teacher interested in exploring 3D models of cells, atoms or DNA with your students.

Wait! Slow down. Before you jump into purchasing and integrating this new gadget into your classroom, take a moment to consider the logistics and realities of becoming a 3D printer early adopter. Here's a basic FAQ I've developed based on my own experiences and extensive research into classroom 3D printing.
What are the challenges?
I was so excited about 3D printing that I bought a printer without much forethought and worked out the kinks after the fact. The good news for you? You can learn from my mistakes.

Here are four things to consider before deciding to buy a 3D printer for your classroom or school:

Funding. The main factor for implementing technology is usually cost. With the range of budget options now on the market, you could get a 3D printer for your school for under $500. But how will you get $500? Check your school's technology budget, the parent-teachers association, local grants from ISTE affiliates, or start a fundraiser. Keep in mind that big sites like DonorsChoose.org might cost more than expected because of their shipping and processing fees.

Learning goals. Before you integrate any new technology into your curriculum, make sure it will help meet your learning goals. 3D printing can make a lot of things possible that were inconceivable in the past, such as using 3D design on a computer to teach Common Core mathematics standards along with ISTE standards including concepts like coordinate planes, geometry, area, perimeter and volume. Students can create 3D designs on Tinkercad.com, which is perfect for K-12 classrooms. They just need a Google account or email address to sign up. Teachers print the 3D designs for students to use, measure and prototype.

Printing time. One drawback to 3D printing is the long print times. Print times vary depending on quality, size, detail and the printer, but printing one 2"x2"x0.5" 3D heart shape, for example, would take at least 20 minutes. A whole class' 3D designs would take hours to print. However, you can keep the printer running in the background while you conduct class, as it doesn't require constant attention.

Learning curve. Teachers who embrace new technology often leap into 3D printing, but it is worth noting that 3D printing is part mechanical. There is an initial learning curve for both using the printer and for keeping it maintained and working. It is not like fixing software errors on a computer. It's more like fixing a LaserJet printer without the expertise of local tech support. Be ready to Google any problems or quirks that arise during your 3D printing experience, as it's not uncommon for the more affordable printers to break down.
Which printer should I get?
Which printer should you choose? It depends. 3D Hubs separates 3D printers into five categories: enthusiast, plug 'n' play, kit/DIY, budget and resin. The most popular printers are in the enthusiast category - MakerBot Replicator 2, Makergear M2 and Ultimaker - but they cost over $1,700 each. When you spend that much, you get a quality printer. But you can get similar results with a $400 version. Competition in the last two years has shifted the price point way down while keeping reliability and quality on par.

Ideally, your first 3D printer should be both plug 'n' play and budget, which is a small field. Here is an analysis of the three plug 'n' play, budget 3D printers - all of which came out just last year - that stand out above the rest:

Micro 3D. According to 3D Hubs, this was the most popular 3D printer as of September 2015.

Cost: $349 with a limited warranty or $449 with a one-year warranty and $13 PLA plastic filament spool
Pros:

Smallest of the group

Wireless printing

Solid quality

Easy to use

Con: Slow printing speed

Printrbot Play. This is a smaller version of the highly rated Printrbot Simple Metal.
Pros:

Solid quality

Fast printing

Uses Cura, the most popular 3D printing software

Cons:

Not as easy to use as the other two

Questionable reliability

DaVinci Jr. This is a smaller version of one of the first budget 3D printers, the DaVinci 1.0.

Cost: $349
Pros:

Enclosed machine

Has a display screen

Cons:

Printing materials are twice as expensive because it uses only XYZ PLA filaments

Poor ratings

What other materials do I need to buy?

Using a 3D printer carries a higher cost than the machine's price tag alone because it requires so many other supplies. Here's a list of all the things you haveto buy at a minimum to do 3D printing in your classroom:

3" blue painter's tape. To print on top of (instead of the print bed)

Isopropyl alcohol spray. To clean tape. You can buy this at any local drugstore.

Twee50zers. To remove strands of melted plastic.

Scraper/putty knife To get 3D prints off the print bed.

Spring-loaded wire cutters To cut off supports and excess plastic.

Wiping cloth. You need only one of these.

PLA filament. This is the raw material that the 3D printer uses to create objects.

The three printers listed here use PLA, which is a plant-based plastic. ( ABS plastic, which is not safe for classrooms, requires a heated bed and different materials.) PLA spools cost $20-$30 per kilogram and last a while, depending on how much you print. For example, 1 kilogram of PLA could make about 500 1-inch hollow cubes. You will probably want various colors. I recommend buying popular hues, such as white, black, blue, pink and green.

The cost of all these supplies is about $150. Add that to the $350 it will take to buy a 3D printer, and you get a grand total of around $500 to get started.
What kind of software do I need?
Every 3D printer comes with free, proprietary 3D slicing and printing software, unless it allows open source software. Cura, from Ultimaker, is the most popular open source software to use, and Printrbot is the model on this list that uses it. If you buy a MakerBot, you will use MakerBot Desktop. If you buy a Micro 3D then you will use Micro 3D software. If you buy an XYZ printer, you use XYZ software.

Each software program has its advantages and disadvantages, but they all do the same things: load 3D object files, allow the user to edit objects and send objects to the 3D printer. It might go without saying, but don't forget that you will also need a computer to run the software and connect to the 3D printer.
Can I test-drive 3D design in my classroom without buying a printer?
Yes. Have your students create 2D or 3D designs with perimeter, area and volume measurements on graph paper, based on the Common Core standard you are teaching. Then let them re-create those designs on Tinkercad.com. These steps alone will cover third through sixth grade math standards and show you how successful 3D printing could be.
So should I get into 3D printing or not?
I can't answer that question for you, but I can tell you why I am into 3D printing: I have never seen technology that intrigues my students the way 3D printers do and allows them to creatively design and make their own prototypes. 3D design is so open-ended that it allows teachers and students to use their creativity to adapt it to any curriculum and standard.

3D printers are also the only tool I know of that combines design with manufacturing and art with technology. If you're a technology or science teacher who is interested in teaching about engineering concepts, the 3D-design-to-printing process is an effective, hands-on way to teach about the design and prototype process.

Now that prices have come down, 3D printing is more viable than ever before for schools. There are risks inherent in managing any new tech tool, including spending too much time to do what you could do with graph paper and clay and the anxiety of wondering if your 3D printer is going to work every day. But I think it's just a matter of time before 3D printers are ubiquitous in K-12 schools. You just need to decide if you have the time, budget, tech savvy and patience to be an early adopter.
