What Is It?
Embedding 3D models adds interactive content to Moodle courses. This mini-guide is specific to the iframe HTML embedding offered by Sketchfab, an external platform hosting 3D models that can be viewed, shared, freely downloaded or purchased on their website, or embedded on other websites or platforms such as Moodle.
