A moment of training course of a inmate in Bollate JailThe program redesignedIntroductionIO2’s main objective is the definition of the entire training process necessary to carry out productiveactivities with the use of 3D printers.The innovation for IO2 is to graft these training practices into the prison context, identifying thetraining specificities linked both to the type of recipients (prisoners) and to the objective conditionsof difficulties related to the operating environment in which to experiment (prisons).Experimentation of training models designed in the previous design phase was necessary to provideguidelines that were also the result of concrete experience.Experiments have been undermined by the restrictions due to the Covid 19 pandemic (in 2020 and2021), which has created many obstacles to projects and slowdowns but, on the other hand, hasoffered the opportunity to analyze the implementation of courses even during bad situations.The training programThe experience of the courses shows a substantial validity of what had already been planned.However, some suggestions for improvement are given: Trainees should have internet access and the path should include a training session on how tofind resources and information on the Internet.3DJail printing the future – IO227
One thing that would also help is to include a follow-up in the online training. The idea is thattrainees would be given enough time, maybe a few weeks, to experiment with what they havelearned after the end of the 3D printing seminars and gather questions. A follow-up would betargeted to address these questions or any issues that arise. Development of a screening tool for the prisoners: to include a final test and a certification In addition, links of the printing workshop to the outside market could contribute so that thereare tangible goals for the inmates. That would bring motivation to the inmates and profoundlyhelp them reintegrate after their release. Given the impact of COVID 19 in the course planning period, it is clear that face-to-face besidedistance education. This course, especially for prisoners, needs all the material and equipment needed to succeed Where possible, it would be better to close the door of the room where the lesson takes place.The inmates must strictly follow the rules, otherwise they cannot focus on the lessons. From a methodological point of view the course can be improved by shortening the theoreticalpart as much as possible: search for a field of “problems”, let the participants identify solutionsand how to solve them. More practical, lab experiments. The training should last more days and hours in order to gainmore experience The importance of learning to conclude the course with the printing of an object is underlinedafter the experienceHints to guide the course implementationIn summary, the following indications emerge in order to improve the development of future courses:1. The Canvas platform is very appreciated, but it is recommended to provide some furtherguidance, perhaps a brief initial training moment, to explain how to use it offline. It is alsonoted that materials uploaded to the platform are unsuitable for weak connections. This islinked to the fact that to carry out the course you absolutely need internet access and also agood connection.2. With respect to the implementation of the course contents in Canvas each partner will havefull powers to be able to modify, add and update the materials. Always on the platform willalso have the opportunity to share its changes with other partners.3. It is clear from the results of the courses realized that the duration of the courses, the amountof deepening, depends mainly on the preparation of incoming trainees, so depends onwhether or not to deepen the basic knowledge on the computer.4. The experimentation of the courses has accidentally impacted with the pandemic and itsrestrictions from which however it emerges clear the indication that the courses in presenceare much more effective than those at a distance that are not recommended especially thoseaimed at prisoners.5. The COVID 19 has often hindered the courses also with regard to the procurement ofequipment and useful materials, in particular the 3D printer, making it clear that the courseexperimented depends largely on the presence of the right machines and equipment.6. With respect to the implementation of the course, it is also stressed that, especially in distancetraining, the theory alone risks being very drowsy. It is therefore advisable to develop trainingmodules where the theoretical part, as short as possible, are followed by problem solvingdynamics where the trainee is the protagonist of the solution. It is also suggested an extensionof the duration of the course for the benefit of an increase in exercises. In particular, theinclusion of 3D printing of the object that the trainees have designed that for them has astrong motivational value is strongly encouraged.3DJail printing the future – IO228
