We’ve followed this company, founded by CEO Sylvain Huet, a French engineer and entrepreneur, as they’ve continued on their mission to see that absolutely anyone can make or edit 3D files. From partnerships with companies like YouMagine and Sketchfab to ongoing new features to make modeling easier for users, we see their momentum continuing to grow—and the use of their product spreading.
- The ability for teachers to create student accounts
- Convenient sharing of content between teachers and students, with the ability to mark content as ‘favorites’
- Real time class management of specific students and workstations, and all class files
- Easy access for students to their own content
“Our Premium Offer for Schools was developed in cooperation with a panel of teachers and was specifically designed to meet their needs in terms of classroom management,” said Sylvain Huet, founder of 3D Slash.
It’s no surprise that 3D Slash is growing quickly in use when it comes to schools, and that should be expected to continue with this popular software as the STEM agenda continues to expand—and not just in the US, but globally. More and more educators are specifically using the 3D Slash product for introducing their students to 3D printing, and with good reason as it is often praised as the most user-friendly 3D modeling tool on the market today—not to mention fun, as the premise for learning to use the software and creating models is performed by ‘slashing a cube.’
Students of all ages can learn to create scale models, prototypes, items like replicas of historical monuments, and much more. Very young students can use the program to learn to manipulate 3D shapes, while older students are able to delve into mastering more precise design and engineering projects.
