Welcome to Module 10 !!!

Welcome to Year 14 Applied ICT.
We received very positive feedback for last years' Module 10 Multimedia work, and we are aiming to improve on that this year.

I will try to get school account problems sorted this class.

To begin: Start the Sketchup program (Start > Programs > IT1 Freeware > Google Sketchup).

Go to "Help > Self Paced Tutorials > Intro" and work through the tutorial experimenting with the different features of the software.

1) Once you have completed this tutorial, try to build a 3D iPod or other object.
2) As an extension, try building a house, complete with brick walls, garden & fence etc...
You can experiment with adding text etc to your scene

3) Save your work as a ".skp" file.
4) Export an image from your model using File > Export > 2D Image.
Save this image in your "Module 10" folder.

=========================

Now log in to your Blogger account and create a post describing the different tools / features available e.g. select, orbit, rotate, push/pull etc.
Upload the image of the 3D model you created earlier.

=========================
