I liked it so much that I even took the second part. I like GIS and I might get a job using it because jobs like this get paid good money. Community support by Virtus Corporation has enabled students in Mrs. Thompson s 3D Design elective to use 3D Website Builder software. The company wanted to know if middle school students could master the techniques necessary to create virtual three dimensional worlds. Students are challenged to new ways of thinking as they create models in a two dimensional view that are projected in three dimensions.
Imaginations soar as students create virtual worlds.
They make Egyptian, Roman, farm, and space scenes. They design their dream house and model an actual room in the school complete with furnishings. Students create aquariums for which they make the sides in a paint program and import them as textures. They create models related to school subjects. The most impressive model showed a slave s perspective as he escaped the South by the Underground Railroad.
