the past few years is 3D printing. 3D printing is essentially the use of a 3D printer to create tangible objects. The history of 3D printing goes farther back than you think, the process to print everything is very similar, and there are many uses. With 3D printing, one can print almost anything they can think of. People have printed many things like a piece of chocolate or even live organs. 3D printers have been linked all the way back to 1952 as an adaption of Computer Numeric Controlled machines
the classroom and have been very beneficial to the teaching process. For example, the invention of the printing press allowed textbooks to be mass-produced, which made them more readily available to all (Anderson 46). Schools could now have multiple copies of the text and would not have to go through the trouble of teaching the material without the children seeing it for themselves. The printing press made reading books and novels a way for everyone to become educated, not just children. Over time

Electronic textbooks are only feasible if students can obtain access to them without difficulty according to Allen. a. Typically, open textbooks are web based, so students and other users are able to access them online. i. Allen said that open textbooks can be downloaded by students to any computer in order to be used while offline as well.
When one says the word “printing” most people think of a small desktop inkjet printer. Printing is much more than just ink on a paper. Printing is an art form that is mixed with science. There are many components of printing. Printing consists of prepress operations, paper and ink selection, plate making, and printing itself. Prepress operations very between print shops, but all aspects are essential to printing a quality book. Before computers, photographers had to take pictures of layouts on a
equipment used to communicate the results of data carried out by a computer or other processing devices which turns information into an easier form for us to read. (Wikipedia). The two main kinds of output devices that we use, this includes the printer and the display monitor. The printer is used for processing text and graphic onto paper. The ink-jet printer and laser printer are the two commonly used today with personal computers. Most ink-jet printers are reasonably fast, being about to print 12
dependent on computers analog has been translated into digital media so that it is in computer and machine-readable form. It is put into binary digits so that computers may read and comprehend it. This process in which media is translated into computer-readable is called digitization. Communication of media has been transferring from the traditional analog media to the newer aged digital media. This is much more convenient in this new age because people have learned to depend on their computers to do work
3D Printing: The weapon to save or kill? People nowadays might get the impression that the 3D printing technology is a relatively new concept in our daily life. However, 3D printing technology is invented and utilized in many fields such as creating human organs in healthcare, building architectural models in engineering, even forming components that can be used in aeronautic fields long ago. Since Charles W. Hull has invented the 3D printing technology in the 1980s, scientists, engineers, and even
Initially, printing was done by hand-painting the films during the 1930’s. Later during the early 1980’s computers were used to create camera ready film. After offset printing was technique was discovered during the early 20th century, production units started printing using offset printers. Offset printing is an indirect printing process, where the ink is not directly applied from the printing plate to the paper instead indirectly through a roller. Before printing four plates are prepared for each
that produces a conducting pattern on any king of surface. Due to its liquid nature, conversion in to solid printing requires several steps like drying, curing or melting. For understanding the basics of conducting ink, knowledge of printing ink elements and working is required. 2.1 Printing inks Generally inks has two basic types: Liquid and semi liquid (thick). The basic composition of printing inks includes colorants, vehicle (binder), additive material like driers and carrier substances (solvent)

Usability of e-book or e-reader is also a concern since eye fatigue is always an issue on an electronic device uses. It is more difficult to read words on a computer screen than on a page and can create eye strain. Learner experienced significant greater eye fatigue with reading through e-book than print book (Jeong, 2012). This is also supported by Chen et.al. in 2012 which found that using electronic book had

on a piece of bark. To do this, I first needed to find a piece of bark that was big enough to write on and light enough so that the writing would show up. After getting a few pieces of bark from the trees near my house, I began experimenting by printing on them with the leaves from a houseplant. I did this by twisting one end of the leaf and smearing it onto the bark. Once I figured out the bark that worked the best, I wrote the words “Not a pencil.” I wrote this for two reasons. One reason is
George Eastman, the Eastman Kodak company now stands as a leader in the infoimaging industry. Infoimaging is a $385 billion industry that consists of using traditional and digital film to allow people to capture and deliver images through cameras, computers, and the media. Currently under the direction of Chairman and CEO Daniel A. Carp, Eastman Kodak is divided into three major areas of production. 1. Kodak’s Digital and Film Imaging Systems section produces digital and traditional film cameras for
oral tradition to the printed words was one of the biggest advancements of all times, the question remains if the movement from printed words to E-books is as revolutionary. Books have been the storehouses of information and knowledge since the printing press and it’s worth our time to inform our selves what the future of our learning will be. “Today, roughly 40-50,000 books are published commercially each year in the English language. But the number is rapidly rising, as traditional barriers to
Electronic Books in Academic Settings Hunter Stewart Troy University Electronic books have continued to rise in popularity. Literacy rates among college students continue to drop in the years since electronic books have hit the market (Rainie, L., Zickuhr, K., Purcell, K., Madden, M., & Brenner, J., 2012). Despite this, electronic books have continued to bring success to the companies that publish them. In 2011, Amazon announced that their electronic book sales had conquered the market and

amazing inventions, I was in heaven, but the device l was most interested in and decided I must have was a 3D printer. 3D printing is like Legos, you can build anything you think of in plastic, but unlike Legos, everything is strong and just the shape you want it to be.

unbelievable idea has turned into reality. An idea that can now be born with the use of a 3D printing mechanism. The prediction that 3-D printers will become a part of one’s daily life is happening faster and quicker than anticipated. These printers can produce objects of any kind. From musical instruments, to desk objects, to furniture, to high tech keys and even clothes, perhaps there isn’t even a range. 3D printing, the process of making 3-Dimensional solid objects from a digital model, is now a turning
