Meshy AI offers a free, easy-to-use platform that empowers educators and students to create 3D models swiftly and efficiently. Members can generate detailed 3D models in less than three minutes by simply inputting text descriptions or uploading images. The free plan provides 200 credits monthly, allowing for the creation of models without needing a credit card. These models can be exported in various formats, including Wavefront Object (OBJ), Filmbox (FBX), and Stereolithography (STL), making them suitable for integration into educational projects, 3D printing, or virtual reality applications. Meshy AI's intuitive interface and rapid processing make it an excellent tool for enhancing creativity and learning in the classroom.

tag(s): artificial intelligence (218), design (71)

In the Classroom

Have students choose a vocabulary word and use Meshy to create a 3D model that represents it. For example, for the word "volcano," they can generate a 3D model of a volcano from a text prompt. Then, they can present their model and explain how it connects to the word's meaning. After reading a story, have students describe a character in detail and use Meshy to turn that description into a 3D model. In social studies or ELA, students can research an artifact from a historical period (ex., a medieval crown or ancient vase) and then generate a 3D model from a text or image prompt. Students can brainstorm and design an invention, describing it in detail via text. They then can use Meshy to model their invention and present it in a "Shark Tank"-style pitch, explaining how it works and its usefulness.

Jennifer Findley's blog post, "Digital Mother's Day Gift," offers educators a free, Google Slides-based project for students to create personalized digital gifts for Mother's Day. The resource includes four customizable themes--such as "Top Ten Things I Love About You" and "Top Ten Greatest Moments with You"--allowing students to craft heartfelt "Top Ten" lists for their mothers or other caregivers. Alternative versions are provided to accommodate diverse family structures, ensuring inclusivity. The project is designed for easy integration with Google Classroom, and upon completion, students can share their presentations via email or view them together with their mothers.

tag(s): mothers day (22)

In the Classroom

Have students use the free Google Slides template to create a "Top Ten Things I Love About You" or "Top Ten Moments With You" presentation for their mom or another special person. Teach a mini-lesson on vivid language and sensory details. Students can revise their digital slides to include more descriptive language. Have students illustrate each "Top Ten" moment digitally or on paper (then insert photos into slides).

yEd Live offers tools to create diagrams from scratch or using ChatGPT AI capabilities. Open the sample diagram to view the different types of diagrams, or enter a prompt to generate a diagram. Use yEd's editing tools to change colors, add or remove information, or make additional adjustments to a diagram. You can also use the AI-prompt feature to edit the diagram. When complete, share your diagram by URL, print it, or download it to your device.

In the Classroom

After introducing the AI prompt feature, have students create diagrams "on the fly" to organize information. They can design a mind map that outlines features of states or countries, then work in groups to research and present each feature. Students could also hold a brainstorming session using an interactive whiteboard or projector to build a shared organizer for a topic or story. Assign students to "map" out a chapter, short story, or historical event, visually showing key ideas and connections. Turn mapping into a creative challenge: students could color-code concepts to show what they understand, wonder about, and want to investigate further. Use this tool for literature activities, science processes, or social studies projects. Students can even create family trees, food pyramids, or life cycle charts, depending on the subject. Encourage students to collaborate online, building group mind maps or review charts before a test. For a fun extension, have groups map out a plotline for a story they invent or outline step-by-step processes like "how to solve an equation" or "how a law gets passed." Finally, challenge students to plan a future career or personal goal using a timeline or flowchart they design themselves.

Bookmark and save this site to use at any time to create blended learning activities throughout the year. Use the request change feature to integrate different blended learning activities. For example, ask to include flipped learning and station rotations in your lesson. Modify the activity and request additional details. If the activity consists of a learning game that requires questions or real-world problems, ask this tool to create those items and include them in the outline. Continue asking for modifications and support materials as needed until satisfied.
