When you’re in the 3D business, you tend to notice trends popping up, when technology you only talk about in the business world starts to cross over into areas of the mainstream media.

So, what better topic for this week’s SPARVlog (that’d be my, ahem, award-winning video blog, ahem) than how 3D is infiltrating our schools and changing the way kids learn?
