Virtual Architecture: Building in Sims 4
Class experience
In this class, we will be discussing different building techniques students can use in Sims, specifically Sims 4. I will have my game screen up and visible to all students, and they will provide suggestions for what should be built next. Students are encouraged (but not required) to have their own Sims game (preferably Sims 4) running so they can construct their own designs! I have various expansion packs I will be using, but none of these are necessary. Students can build everything I will...
Students will gather new ideas for designing and building in Sims. Students will share their ideas and opinions in a respectful way with others. Students will discuss their opinions on different designs in Sims.
Homework Offered
Assessments Offered
Students will be informally assessed on their ability to share their opinions and make suggestions for designing and building structures in Sims 4.Grades Offered
Students may want to have access to Sims 4, although it is not necessary. They can watch and learn from my screen, and share their opinions through Zoom and through the Zoom chat.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
The Sims 4 is rated "T" for teen. This game will focus strictly on building and designing houses--there will be no creating of Sims (the people in the game), so there will be no partial nudity of the characters as outfits are chosen for them, etc. as a class. There will also be no personal or romantic interactions of Sims in our class, although students can later play in "live" mode and play with their sims.
We will consistently reference Sims 4 in this game. It would be useful for students to have their own copy of the game, although it is not a requirement. No expansion packs are needed. The base pack, as well as a trailer for the game, can be viewed here: https://www.origin.com/can/en-us/store/the-sims/the-sims-4?code=QUOxAFHJAvxXil5Ks_SKR3dz2pOaeyyi41jFszWjAQ .
