My Students

My students are using Keycreator which is a 3D modeling software as if they were creating one of a kind engineering projects in college. This class is for students who are interested in quickly conceptualizing the most challenging engineering projects.

My students will have to be able to understand direct dimension editing.

A clear accurate descriptive interpretation will have to be created as conceptual designs, but extended throughout the iterative design process. I need a way to visually project 3D models and audio instructions for daily lessons. This will give the class the ability to create and draw descriptive 3D models in our classroom. Most of these lessons are from online tutorial clips from Keycreator. This offers the class to have a distant learning ability with such lessons.

My Project

The classroom uses a Sharp LCD monitor to help my students engage the lesson being presented interactively while mounted on the wall. The screen will show graphic illustrations clearly with laptop computers and 3D modeling software. The monitor is limited in the range of having a audio encoder to provide adequate sound while listening to a lecture from a embedded audio which is from a secondary video source. What I need is the Sharp HT-SB500 sound bar, that is a simple speaker which is able to deliver surround sound with built in dts, dolby decoders so you will be convinced you are in a college lecture.

The Sharp HT-SB500 sound bar will enhance collaboration and student participation when they are making class presentations.

These materials will give my students the ability to be in a higher learning environment; along with supervision and instruction as if it was a college course. Please consider donating towards my project so my students can understand presentations clearly. This project will allow collaborations of technology to interact naturally and dynamically as a 21st century classroom.
