Abstract
In this paper we present the aims and the results of the project Introducing 3D Modeling into Geometry Education at Technical Colleges that was supported by the Fund for the Development of the University of Zagreb. The main goals of the project were achieving a stronger professional and scientific collaboration among teachers and improving teaching geometry courses at the technical faculties of the University of Zagreb. The focus of the project was creating a basic repository of educational materials related to common teaching topics and those customized to the profiles of each faculty. The special emphasis was given to the materials connected to 3D computer modeling.
