Abstract:

The use of ICT in the classroom for the development of ideas and the creation of products is beneficial in the development of multiple intelligences in students. There are numerous benefits derived from 3D printing in the educational field. These products can be used in any classroom, but have special relevance in classrooms for special education and young children, where the teacher devotes a lot of time and effort to the development of working materials.

The use of new technologies and specifically 3D design and printing contributes to the explicit development of logical-mathematical, visual-spatial, and naturalistic abilities. The use of products can support the work on all types of intelligences. From the elaboration of characters for drama work that enhances the linguistic intelligence, to the production of different geometric figures that allow the student to assimilate knowledge and relationships between the basic forms.

In this paper, we intend to implement the use of 3D printing for the evaluation and development of multiple intelligences in the classroom, attending to the basic skills on which each of the intelligences is based.
