Week 8 - Let's pretend we are architects!

3/15/2014

0 Comments

 
So this week we are going to start up the final unit of Quarter 3.  We are look at another multi-stage unit with a lot of creativity, small assignments and a final project.  I really liked the way the GIMP stuff worked out and the self-paced, independent lessons seemed to allow for far superior work than I expected.  

This unit is on Google SketchUp Move.  This is all about 3D design work.  Without a doubt you will see in the next few years that printing in 3D is normal.  You will have one in your home.  It is just to easy.  So let's embrace it.  Let's get in on ground level and look into the world of 3D design.  This week will be an intro week, with a few little walk through lessons and some discussion.  I am excited to have been able to upgrade the computers enough to be able to handle the requirements and hope that it is an fun and challenging unit for you.

Sunday - Finish OneNote Assignment
Monday to Thursday - SketchUp Intro (Go to InfoTech folder, copy the Intro SketchUp files, and run them from your computer)


Did you want to earn those extra 5% on the upcoming assignments?  If you do, then you can start working on the assignments below...each one can earn up to 5% on the future assignments.  We can pick up to 4 of these to earn up to 5% on the assignments coming next week.

  • What were the Pros and Cons that you found with Microsoft OneNote?
  • Why don’t you do the things you know you should be doing? Life isn’t about figuring out what to do.  The real challenge is (not so) simply doing the things we know we should be doing.
  • Comment on the video in this LINK.  Or you could just watch it from the folder (do this if you are on campus...it's HD)
