Turn the model to the view you want before you open this. Clear backgrounds drop straight onto a coloured folio page.
Anyone who opens this link gets their own copy of the design in SchoolCAD. The design is packed inside the link itself, so nothing is uploaded or stored on a server.
Checkpoints of this design, newest first. Save one at the end of each lesson: they show how your design developed, which is great evidence for your folio.
Your designs are kept in this browser. Use Save file to take a copy to another computer.
Finished, fully defined designs to explore and change. Each opens as a copy you can keep.
Step-by-step projects with a checklist for each step. Each one starts a new document you can keep.
SchoolCAD is free, browser-based CAD for school Design & Technology. Students design their own products in the Part workspace, using the same tool names and workflow as Onshape, Autodesk Fusion and SOLIDWORKS (sketch, constraints, dimensions, extrude, revolve, sweep, loft, fillet, chamfer, hole, pattern, mirror, boolean, mates and drawings), so their skills carry straight over when they move on.
It is also built for differentiated instruction:
Free for students. Schools can have the projects they already teach loaded as scaffolded tutorials. Everything runs in the browser: no accounts, and nothing is uploaded.
Guides, the blog and information for schools are at schoolcad.com.
Read-aloud in word help uses AI voices (Microsoft Azure neural text to speech), recorded in advance and stored with SchoolCAD, so nothing is sent anywhere when students play them.
Exact geometry (true fillets and chamfers, STEP export) uses OpenCascade (LGPL 2.1) through replicad (MIT), running in your browser.
The Render window uses three.js and three-gpu-pathtracer (MIT). Pictures are made on your computer, with no AI and nothing uploaded.
