 Bring your pupils to Park View CLC to use this fantastic new CAD program which is intuitive, powerful and free! Yes, the program can be downloaded free from the internet and installed at your school to be used by pupils and staff alike! We’ll take your pupils through the major functions of the program so that they feel confident in bringing their design into a 3D environment. Images can be saved at any time to show the progression of the design.
Pupils will produce a final set of images of their design.
CAD is an integral part of the Design and Technology curriculum. Google Sketchup is an easy and free* way of producing work of real excellence.
This session is adaptable. It can be run as a KS2, KS3 or GCSE session.
The outcome is dependent on the needs of the teacher and the imagination of the pupil.
The program is extremely easy to pick up and can be downloaded and installed to your school network after so that skills learnt can be reused.
Have a look at the animation below to see how easy it is to create something using Sketchup...
