Online 3D Lesson Sites
This collaborative platform provides FREE resources and support, helping educators to introduce and embed 3D Printing technology in the classroom.
Thingiverse Education provides over a hundred free lessons that make teaching with a 3D printer easier and more effective for a variety of grade levels and subjects. It also provides a community where educators can exchange best practices or remix projects.
We’re committed to helping educators integrate 3D printing into their K-12 classrooms, college courses, makerspaces, and libraries
