Executive Summary :

The project aims to teach 1000 school children in Karaikal District, Puducherry about 3D printing and 3D scanning through NCSTC. The program aims to enhance their imagination and visualization skills, build theoretical and practical knowledge on various 3D printing techniques, and enable them to print scaled 3D models on their own. 3D printing can bridge the gap between science and arts, improve visual and practical learning, and enhance problem-solving abilities. The project will also promote cooperation, innovation, and social skills among students.
