Modelado 3D con Sketchup: ¡Construyamos Main Street, EE. UU.! (Flexible)

Students will learn how to build a detailed 3D buildings and explore architecture along the way!

Each lesson will begin by learning new SketchUp tools. I will be going over each new tool, how it works, and what it will be used for in regards to the 3D building model. 

Week 1: Introduction to SketchUp
Objective: Student will learn how to build basic building structures.
Student will practice with each tool that is introduced.
Student will learn architectural vocabulary and how it applies to the buildings. 

Week 2: More advanced tools and concepts
Objective: Student will learn more advanced tools, how to manipulate objects, and add windows.
Student will show that they have mastered the basic tools.

Week 3: Components
Objective:  Student will learn to create a component.
Student will show that they know how to manipulate and create a variety of objects. 

Week 4: Detail Work
Objective:  Student will learn how to create details for their buildings.
Student will show that they are able to create a variety of different details.

Week 5: Detail Work Continued
Objective:  Student will continue to learn how to create details for their buildings.
Student will show that they are able to create a variety of different details.

Week 6: Detail Work Completed
Objective:  Student will learn the finishing details for their buildings.
Student will show that they are able to create a variety of different details.

Week 7: Texturing
Objective:  Student will learn how to texture their buildings and continue learning architectural concepts such as scale.


The completed buildings should be submitted to the Outschool classroom.

*Please note, grades (letter/percentage) are not issued for this course.

**The closing date for classes will be one week after the last session.  Work submitted after the close date will not receive feedback.

For interaction: Learners will post their work in the classroom to share with one another. Learners will ask each other questions and be able to give tips and demonstrations to explore new and innovative ways to create objects. Learners are able to post screenshots in the classroom to receive feedback from me as well as other learners. The more we share, the more we will learn. I will be checking the classroom every Monday and Thursday to give feedback and to answer questions. 

I look forward to seeing all of the wonderful creations.
