Almost daily, people are amazed by the breadth of uses to which Sketchup can be put. Roman buildings, bridges, comparing volume in mathematics etc.. Therefore I have decided to work with the Top valley And Nat Puri Engineering Centre in Nottingham, UK, to offer a one day course in Sketchup, and how it can creatively be used to bolster teaching.
You may be a PE teacher wishing to make 3D tactics boards or a school thinking about a new extension. maybe a graphics or food teacher wanting to put pupils packaging designs on actual 3D boxes and then on a supermarket shelf. You may be a teacher of history who wants to use 3D models of planes such as the Wright Brothers flyer to show how brave these people were, or a geaography teacher wanting pupils to assess the impact of a new supermarket by placing a model in Google Earth.
There are a choice of two dates, 4th December 2007 and 22nd January 2008. It costs £135 including a buffet lunch. For full details, please phone 0115 953 9060 and ask for the Engineering Centre
