There's a lot that 3D printing software can do, but it helps to have the knowledge and skills to really push the capabilities of this technology to the next level. As this technology develops with the bright minds of the next generation, there's i3D Creatives, a 3D design education system that introduces kids between the age of 8 and 15 to the world of 3D printing.
The platform includes multiple lessons that will equip kids with the skills to design objects with the help of computer software. Part of the appeal of this platform is that kids are able to proceed at their own pace, but it's exciting that they will get to create items of their own design. As well as being a great introduction to the world of 3D printing, when shaping modules for rockets and airplanes, kids also pick up an understanding of other topics like flight and aerodynamics.
