3D Design and Printing with SPIKE Prime

SPIKE Prime LEGO
Lesson plans specifically created to help learn 3D design in a student-friendly way. On each lesson, students design a 3D model that completes, or expands the possibilites of a robot built from LEGO® Education SPIKE™ Prime bricks. Every step of the design process is explained by means of commentary and multimedia. These lessons offer a unique chance to transform digital into reality, and the effects look spectacular. Moreover, students learn exceptionally practical skills that they can later build on and use professionally.
