Makers Empire 3D, is a 3D modeling computer program. The 3D app is optimized for touch screens -- e.g. iPads -- but can be used with and without a mouse on all major platforms. It is designed to introduce 4-13 year old students to design thinking via 3D design and 3D printing.
It is available as a freeware version, Makers Empire 3D, and a paid subscription version for primary, elementary and middle schools, which includes additional features designed to help educators integrate 3D design and printing into their teaching practice efficiently and effectively. The school subscription version includes over 130 lesson plans aligned to US Common Core standards, Next Generation Science standards and the Australian Curriculum, professional development, training and support for teachers, a class management tool, analytics, and a school implementation plan.
In 2017, Makers Empire partnered with Polar3D.
A notable Makers Empire project is the 'Ollie Customizer' for the Sphero Ollie.
Makers Empire was the recipient of a Bronze Award at the 2015 IMS Global Learning Impact Awards.
Makers Empire is a NewSchools portfolio company and has been favorably reviewed by Common Sense Education and 3D Insider, amongst others. Makers Empire was also described as a "compelling example" of 3D printing in the 2015 Horizon Project report, an initiative by the New Media Consortium.
