Hi everyone this is Matthew's Page :)

=//**﻿__Intoduction__**//= //**In CDT our teacher has said that we can make up our own projects so that we learn to become more independent. I am going to use this page so that I can tell everyone about my projevt and research.**// =//**﻿__My Project__**//= //**My project is to make a booklet full of 3d pictures using Sketch Up.**// //**I am not doing this because I just want to, it is because when I first walked into the CDT classroom I saw loads of pictures hanging up or sitting on the table so I took a closer look and realised that they were 3d and from then on I really wanted to make one and now I have the chance. My theme would be 'World Landmarks'**// =//**__Things I would need__**//=
 * =//**. Accses to a computer with the Sketch Up program**//=
 * //**Accses to other Sketch Up drawings to give me ideas**//
 * //**Paper to sketch out my ideas**//

Matthew good to see that you have got started. I'm interested to know what you want to make your pictures on - most people start off with houses but you can make anything you like in sketchUp. Would it be centred around a theme? If you download SketchUp for home remember to save your files as sketchup7, as that is the version we have in school

Good luck. Get some ideas rolling

=﻿**//__Learning Log__//**=
 * //WEEK 1:This week in CDT we started our projects in the workshop. I started my work on making my World Landmarks but the only problem was was that the laptop I had didn't work!//**
 * //Now I have to use a computer which I cant't log on to so I think I should bring in a memory stick to save all my work on.//**
 * //The skills I learned this week in CDT were Independence because we really started to do everything on our own.//**
 * //WEEK2:This week in CDT I started to make my 3D pyramid on the laptop but during the middle of class our teacher stopped us to talk about the learning logs.//**
 * //The skills I used were problem solving because I had to work out what shape and size my pyramid and I also had to find out how to make all the shapes the same size.//**
 * //Next week I have to finish my 3D pyramid and then I have to start planning my next World Landmark.//**
 * //WEEK3: This week in CDT I finally finished my 3D pyramid and started to think about what I was going to do next.//**
 * //The skills I used in CDT were independance and problem solving because I had to find out a way to make the top of my pyramid come to a point and//**
 * //because I did it on my own.//**
 * //Next week I have to start my next 3D project but you will all have to wait and see what it is!!!!!//**


 * //WEEK4: Nothing.//**


 * //WEEK5: This week in CDT I finaly finished my 3D pyramid and started my Leaning Tower Of Pizza ( I can't spell Pizza )//**
 * //The skills i used this week was problem solving because I had to find a way to make a point on my pyramid and helping others because you can kind of tell//**
 * //I helped others.//**
 * //WEEK6: This week in CDT I started to design and make ( on the computer of course) my Empire State Building.//**
 * //The skills I use were patience because I had to make all the windows on the Empire State Buildingand that is a lot by the way//**
