3D Jail Project - IO1 - Competence framework for 3D printing in jail
Intellectual Output 1 The main innovative element of IO1 is to entail professionalizing competencies on the use of 3D printing technologies in the learning context of people with fewer opportunities because of their status of prisoners, ex-prisoners or subjected to alternative measures to detention. It is innovative because – in a pioneering way in Europe – it puts the basis to frame this kind of competencies in relation with restricted people, in the context of prison security, and it challenges penitentiary administrations to innovate their procedures and conditions to use even more ICT technologies inside their structures. It also poses prisons’ educational systems before the challenge to include these specific competencies in the educational experience of the inmates.

<strong>3D</strong>-Pr<strong>in</strong>t<strong>in</strong>g – How it works<br />
The term <strong>3D</strong> <strong>pr<strong>in</strong>t<strong>in</strong>g</strong> covers a variety of processes <strong>in</strong> which material is jo<strong>in</strong>ed or solidified<br />
under computer control to create a three-dimensional object, with material be<strong>in</strong>g added<br />
together. This is done typically layer by layer, <strong>pr<strong>in</strong>t<strong>in</strong>g</strong> a first layer and then mov<strong>in</strong>g the<br />
whole object one step down, to add the next layer upon it. This way the object is be<strong>in</strong>g build<br />
up step by step, result<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> the complete piece after the process is f<strong>in</strong>ished. This differs<br />
such production process from traditional manufactur<strong>in</strong>g – where only needed material is<br />
used. This is a so called “Additive Manufactur<strong>in</strong>g”.<br />
In the 1990s, <strong>3D</strong> <strong>pr<strong>in</strong>t<strong>in</strong>g</strong> techniques were considered suitable only <strong>for</strong> the production of<br />
functional or aesthetical prototypes and a more appropriate term was rapid prototyp<strong>in</strong>g.<br />
Today, the precision, repeatability and material range have <strong>in</strong>creased to the po<strong>in</strong>t that some<br />
<strong>3D</strong> <strong>pr<strong>in</strong>t<strong>in</strong>g</strong> processes are considered viable as an <strong>in</strong>dustrial production technology,<br />
whereby the term additive manufactur<strong>in</strong>g can be used synonymously with <strong>3D</strong> <strong>pr<strong>in</strong>t<strong>in</strong>g</strong>. One<br />
of the key advantages of <strong>3D</strong> <strong>pr<strong>in</strong>t<strong>in</strong>g</strong> is the ability to produce very complex shapes or<br />
geometries, and a prerequisite <strong>for</strong> produc<strong>in</strong>g any <strong>3D</strong> pr<strong>in</strong>ted part is a digital <strong>3D</strong> model or a<br />
CAD file.<br />
