Learning sketchup 8 for the first time is quite a new and stimulating experience for me. I found the tutorials both informative and fun, I also like the fact that the tutorials can be paused and replayed so I was able to learn at my own pace. I also found it useful and important in general for sketchup8 to create groups and components using the right click on a 3 button mouse. This functionality allows me to manipulate and duplicate each specific piece without affecting other components. I found the group and component functionality to be quite powerful. Tools used (View > Tool Palettes > Large Tool Set) select, rectangle, push/pull, offset, tape measure tool, follow me tool, arc, line, paint bucket, zoom extents, move, circle, eraser, orbit, pan, axes. Dialog boxes used (View > Face Style > X-ray) Right click dialog box was used to hide selected lines. View > Axes was used to hid axes lines prior to exporting to 2d images.

1.b. Draw & Think using analog tools NA

1.c. Draw & Think using digital tools Yes

1.d. Use Architect’s Scale NA

1.e. Use Engineer’s Scale NA

1.f. Use Measurements dialog box Yes

Doghouse 1: SLO Progress Report SLO 2: Select and effectively use either manual or digital

means to explore, analyze, and document an evolution of

design ideas in architecture and interior design

2.a. Relate modes of representation; select and apply best

system to explore and communicate design intentions

Used perspective and orthographic views to communicate

the idea of doghouse 1

2.b. Produce a set of architectural drawings to document a

case study

NA

2.c. Produce a portfolio of work that chronicles student

learning throughout the semester

Yes

SLO 3: Accurately relate each aspect of the drawn visual

language system to three-dimensional reality and human

perception

Use of perspective view with entourage and shade

communicates the reality of Doghouse 1. Inclusion of a

human figure an other forms gives a credible scale to the

doghouse.

SLO 4: Visually and verbally explain the process of idea

development using graphic representation

The process of developing the doghouse a class exercise

to begin with and other details were added outside of

class for additional practice using Skechup 8

SLO 5: Develop an awareness of the relationships

between graphic representations and fundamental design

principles and elements

I have yet to learn relationships between graphic

representations and fundamental design principles in this

class. I look forward to being able to answer this question

further into the semester in this class.
