UNESCO Village: Thumbs Up for SketchUp

Students went on a learning journey to explore the UNESCO heritage sites in their country. They researched the history, purpose, and influences of buildings and/ or landscapes, compared them with different countries, and discovered how these sites reflect a particular country’s culture. They also either worked on a 3D- model of these structures using the software called SketchUp, or created a “miniaturised” replica by hand. All building models were featured as part of the UNESCO Village, and showcased the different architectural styles of Asia and Europe.
