How 3D Printing in the Cloud Changed Teachers' Classrooms for Good

Here are a few quotes from the article that shows how a few happy Polar Cloud teachers have been using the platform to handle all of their classroom's 3D printing.

JH: The process of onboarding students is fast, easy, and convenient. Even kindergarten students can do it with ease!

MT: I can manage printers, jobs, see processes and more from any web-connected device, such as a desktop, laptop, tablet (iPad) or even my phone. For large jobs (if I am concerned), I can watch and check on jobs that may be running overnight from my devices at my house (or anywhere with an Internet connection).

JH: I love the curriculum provided on the Polar Cloud. Our favorite challenge is the Tinkering with Turbines Project. Moving from printing a single object to printing multiple parts that can be combined & assembled with motors, batteries, and wires really opens their eyes to how 3D printing is used in the real world. Seeing the "part to whole" concept & realizing that in combination with other materials, you can create something that does a job and is useful is what this process and learning journey is all about.

RA: I'm on their YouTube videos whenever I get stuck. Just watched one this week on a dead screen issue. They are always helpful if that's the problem I have!
