Teaching Resources:

Integrate Autodesk technology in your classroom with free* teacher resources and lesson plans from the Education Community. By joining the community, educators gain access to a wide range of materials, including curriculum, interactive exercises, and modular projects for the following disciplines: design basics, architecture and engineering, sustainable design, industrial design, and games and animation.

The following titles are examples of curricula that support the Design Academy:

*Design Basics Curriculum—promotes design education by providing students with foundational knowledge from 2D to 3D sketching and visualization to quick-start tutorials on Autodesk software.

* Pre-Architecture Curriculum—illustrates the architectural design process through real-life projects that help students apply architectural standards and create compelling architectural renderings.

* Pre-Engineering Curriculum—helps build knowledge of mechanical engineering and civil engineering design processes.

* Robotics Curriculum—provides fun, interactive lessons on the engineering process that connect the classroom to the real world.

* Science and Math Curriculum—promotes technology using math and science principles to solve problems.

* Sustainable Design Curriculum—illustrates the impact that design has on the environment, and inspires the use of alternative building materials and resources.
