We are excited to report that we have successfully finished a first version of Turtle 3D. This is the next step after Turtle Tina, where the Turtle can freely swim in the 3D space using airplane-like controls of yaw, pitch and roll, and create awesome wire frame models. Two samples are shown below. Click on

During the last two weeks we trained the first group of Nevada CTE teachers in coding and 3D modeling. We did Karel Coding, Turtle Coding, and 3D Modeling. Not surprisingly they all were doing extremely well. We were a bit afraid that being experienced users of commercial CAD software such as AutoCAD or Solidworks, they
Kristy Reck who works with the GT program at three DCSD schools, says: “NCLab offers online classes in computer coding, and 3D modeling.
