They did the first testing of their product in Maxfort school Dwarka<\/strong>, in December 2015, while they were still in college.<\/p>\n

There are more than 70 designs<\/strong> created per week in schools which are pure student creations and all custom made designs. Currently 3Dexter is associated with 20+ schools<\/strong> across India. They have conducted workshops on 3D printing in 80+ schools<\/strong> with a student base of 13000<\/strong>. Their aim is to take this technology across all the schools in India and make it easier for the students to learn.<\/p>\n

”Yes, all of us were studying when the idea hit us and\u00a0All this happened during our college days”<\/strong> , says the proud team.<\/em><\/p>\n

Q. What led to the start of 3Dexter?<\/h3>\n

\u200bAs 7 friends, we were very much inclined towards benefitting the education sector together in some way. We researched on a couple of ideas and did ample analysis after which we found out that 3D Printing had enormous potential in the education sector if put in right use. After we shortlisted 3D Printing as our apex tool to inculcate experiential learning into the classrooms, we did a 6 months research and created a comprehensive curriculum where in we integrated 3D Printing technology with the school subjects.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Q. What is the ideology behind this startup? The larger vision of this startup?<\/h3>\n

3D printing makes learning immersive through sight and touch<\/strong>, which in turn helps the students to understand and recognise their concepts better. Our education methods need upgradation. Currently, students are busy cramming concepts just to score marks rather than understanding them and putting them into good use. Students need to face the real life situations in order to win the highly competitive race of becoming the best. 3D printing gives us a chance to transform our imaginations into reality and the best place to utilise such power is to implement it at the grass root levels. Sooner or later, 3D printing will take over every other industry by its massive usage and unrestricted applications.Vision is to bring innovation at its core and start mini factories in schools where students Visualize-Design-Create.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Q. How 3Dexter is revolutionizing the educational sector? How does it address the needs of students at its best to make them skillful, creative and innovative?<\/h3>\n

\u200b3D printing holds immense use in the educational sector. It is in fact, the most favourable choice for smart curriculum in educational spheres. Scientifically proven to enhance creativity and original development skills, 3D printing is a venture that not only interests students but also educates them. 3Dexter is a venture that aims at revolutionizing the Indian Education system through modern teaching methods aided by 3D printing. 3Dexter has been conducting it\u2019s annual curriculum in various schools producing some extraordinary results. 3Dexter aims at promoting pragmatic learning with the help of 3D Printing in order to ignite innovation in schools and other
\neducational spaces. A Student’s mind is programmed to follow set patterns and traditional ways of studying, rather at this age it should be focusing on innovating and experimenting. 3Dexter envisions to create such mini factories that ignite innovation through 3D Printing technology.<\/p>\n

Q. How is it being reached by the students? What expectations does the team have with 3Dexter?<\/h3>\n

\u200b3Dexter provides a complete plethora of this futuristic technology. Computer labs are upgraded into high tech design thinking labs which aim at igniting innovation in the young minds. Apart from setting up of these labs, 3Dexter also provides teacher assistance model which helps the school teachers by providing them subject related 3D printed models like an anatomical heart or a 3D printed catapult that helps in explaining projectile motion. The team believes that with 3D printing, students can enhance their creativity and spatial intelligence. 3Dexter provides students an extra dimension to learn and foster- The Third Dimension.<\/strong><\/p>\n
