Design Camp

Most memorable activity in the computer room during Design Camp (October, 2006) was making of a 3D model of our school and placing it into Google Earth. It was one of the first 3D models in Thailand, together with models of Ministry of Finance and King Mongkut University. Ours was made by 9 year olds and it looks just the same. Students measured the actual size of school buildings including their height whish was not an easy task, they couldn't just use the ruler or a tape measure - they had to use geodesic formulaes. Then they scaled down the buildings and learned to use a program called Google SketchUp to build 3D models.
