Doric Column

thingiverse

BlocksCAD is an online software that teaches coding and Computer Aided Design skills to students absolutely free. With BlocksCAD, learners design a 3D Doric Column in two skill levels - Beginner and Advanced. Students put their familiar skills into practice by creating shapes, using translation, rotation, variables, linear loops, and learning radial loops with rotation, modules, and extracted 2D shapes. As they construct something they can 3D print, students are introduced to computational thinking. The Advanced Doric Column Activity is suitable for 8th-12th grade students who have prior BlocksCAD experience. Teachers can sign up for a free trial of the BlocksCAD for Education platform. From here, teachers create classes with unique join codes and manage student work.
