Sketchup Warmup

Bowl/Dome:

 

 

Simple Chair:

123D Design Chair: 

 

 

 

 

Description: Students will do the two Sketchup tutorials as a warm-up to working in 123d Design and a 3D design environment. Students will used their assigned computers and Sketchup to produce two simple 3D objects from tutorials linked below. They can also do an extra credit tutorial for additional practice and points. Students will take screen shots from at least 2 perspectives to show the design of the objects. They will upload the screen shots to their ePortfolios with a description from my site and include a reflection of their work.

 

Summary: I have never used Sketchup before so it took some getting used to but in the end it was alright. all the assignments were pretty easy while in my opinion the chair was the hardest of the two. I would definitely not want to do more assignments in sketchup unless i have to.
