How to use the basic tools available in a visual modeling application to build a 3D model of the Parthenon, complete with shadows and shading, as it might have looked in ancient Greece when it was new. The concepts taught in the tutorials movies can be easily applied toward building other 3D objects and applying elements of design in other projects. To provide students with the opportunity to use software tools to gain a greater understanding of dimension, measurement, and symmetry. Finished project should look like this. The student will be able to:
