3D professor: Computer platform challenges students academically – By Nicole Maxwell (Alamogordo Daily News) / March 16 2020
The Alamogordo Public School District has embraced the use of programs that can help children learn. One of these programs is zSpace.

The program was used throughout the district in both elementary and secondary classrooms for the first time beginning in August 2019.
