Wide accessibility and a broad range of applications have made 3D-printers a commonplace tool in the science community. From tier-one research institutions to community public libraries and high schools, 3D-printers are being used to enrich STEM education through a variety of learning techniques and experiences. Reports of 3D-printed models for improved visualization of chemical phenomena, as well as the educational use of 3D-printed laboratory devices, are rapidly increasing. The objective of this review is to provide a resource for educators interested in incorporating 3D-printing into their chemistry classrooms by evaluating recent peer-reviewed reports that used this technology to enhance chemistry education.
