SketchUp and English Language Development
-
Here I am (teacher), sitting in a meeting about teaching English and I had a thought (but I don't know if this is the forum where this belongs).
I thought that it would be wonderful to have sketchup buildings that children could "walk" through and then have to talk to each other about what they see or would do; buildings perhaps like a doctor's office, a grocery or department store, a park, a home, you get the idea. Do you think anyone here would be interested in making something like this? or interested in helping me find buildings already made that might work? We're looking for building that would have rooms with lots of stuff in them to talk about.
What do you think? Any other ideas?

Well, are you familiar with the "walk" tool? If not please get familiar with it.
As for your idea, do you mean in real life like a hologram or VIA the computer? (apparently 3-D printers got me too excited now)
So basicly your saying you want kids to go on the computer and look and walk around a model of whatever, first of all I think you personally can make one yourself easily with help from us.
Like I said, get familiar with the walk tool first then come back to this, go ahead and try it out.By the way, you won't mind if I ask what grade are you teaching?
