Like most technologies, 3D printing has gotten to the point where students are learning about it at a younger age and it’s becoming an engrained part of their lives. From hands-on experience with desktop 3D printers at their schools to introductory lessons with 3D modeling software, students are quickly becoming a part of the maker movement. We are committed to helping more students learn through our Education program,<\/a> and now we’re excited to partner with companies who truly encourage learning at a young age.<\/p>\n

Recently, we introduced a contest<\/a> that encourages students to explore their creativity through 3D printing. In partnership with iD Tech<\/a> and Dremel<\/a> we are inviting students to model their own Minecraft-inspired design. Using Autodesk software, students K-12 (in the US only) can create products inspired by the beloved game. Three winners will be chosen, and each will receive prizes to continue their education of technology and 3D printing.<\/p>\n

We’re thrilled to be working alongside companies like iD Tech and Dremel who are focused on bringing tech to students and encouraging those of all ages to pursue STEM-related fields. As younger generations learn more about 3D printing we’ll see the industry move forward in ways like never before.<\/p>\n
