Pedagogy is not about directing children. In its absolute form, pedagogy is not just about teaching. In the truest sense, teaching is just one element of pedagogy and not the entire story.

The advent of 3D Printing (also known as additive manufacturing) has brought maker pedagogy opportunities to schools and other educational institutions in a fairly affordable manner.

There is nothing wrong with any of these approaches, provided they don''t get in the way of good pedagogy. Or is it because you have actually sat down and worked out what problems technology will solve, and how pedagogy will be enhanced by its introduction? But that is the problem. Are your staff on board with this idea?

Elements are often separated by boundaries, and these must be transgressed if blends are to be effected. In other words, we need to bring elements together that might not naturally co-exist.

If you subscribe to a kind of pedagogy where you believe that facilitating learning is more effective than direct instruction, you will probably recognise the potential. Pedagogy is (or really should be) about creating spaces and opportunities that are conducive to good learning. Yet it is not as clear cut as the binary might suggest.
