Абстракт:

    The aim of this paper is to identify several promising practices from the scientific literature of using 3D Printing technology in education for students with Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Such practices could contribute to the learning, social integration and wellbeing of this group of students. In order to achieve this goal, three research questions are defined. More than 50 relevant articles drawn from Google Scholar and Science Direct are reviewed and 25 of them are selected for analyzing the best practices. 7 of them were identified as fully meeting the study criteria. The analysis is made on the basis of criteria like: type of research, target groups, observed results and challenges as well as used 3D printing technology and software. As a result of this analysis, the answers to the research questions were given in order to define the most efficient practices regarding the application of 3D printing in education of people with ASD.
