Description
Give your students a genuine CAD experience — no software, no licences, no IT headaches.
This is not another PDF walkthrough or a video to watch. It's a fully interactive Fusion 360 simulator that runs in any browser, where students actually design a working Raspberry Pi 5 case from an empty canvas. Drop the single HTML file on your network or Google Drive, students open it in Chrome, and they're modelling in 3D within seconds — offline, on Chromebooks, Windows, or Mac.
Why teachers love it:
Every step has a "Show Me" ghost-cursor demo, so no student is ever left stuck while you're helping someone else. The lab guides itself, freeing you to circulate and support rather than re-explaining the same click ten times. Progress is auto-saved, so students pick up exactly where they left off next lesson — even on a shared device.
Real engineering, not a toy:
Students design around the published Raspberry Pi 5 datasheet — the 85×56mm board, the 58×49mm mounting grid, true material thickness. They learn that dimensions come from the product, not from preference. Across five short, scaffolded lessons they build the floor, the walls, the standoffs, and a ventilation pattern — unlocking Fusion's Pattern tool to design a feature once and let parametric maths repeat it. This is authentic CAD thinking they can carry into any project.
What you get:
- One self-contained interactive HTML lab (no install, no login, no subscription)
- Five guided lessons with built-in demos and instant feedback
- A finished, 3D-printable Pi 5 case design
- Works fully offline on school devices
Perfect for: Years 9–10 / Grades 8–10 Digital Technologies, Engineering, and Design & Technology classes.
Part of the Digital World in 3D series — a progressive sequence of standalone CAD labs that takes students from foundational sketching through to advanced parametric tools.
