Why 3DBTK

Teaching Biology and Science in Uganda has remained theory and a very difficult endeavor in the education system due to the unavailability of models like for the human skeleton, cells, animals, plants and equipment like simple microscopes which are crucial in understanding biology and science concepts. It is even worse in refugee settlements where schools lack access to the basic lab equipment. The common approach of using visual 2D chats is not comprehendible and concepts are easily forgotten by students.
