aspexTabs is fun. The pupils
pictured here were tasked to build a 3D model that could be used to
represent the internet!
They were invited to be ‘crazily creative’, with interesting
results.

The mass of shapes (left) represent the network of computer networks that make
up the internet.
Other models of the internet used coloured threads for the
interconnecting media.

"Take a look at these! The structures are UNBELIEVABLE, these
are made by grade five students with a science focus on
structures and bridges. All the bridges are constructed from TABS nets"

| Project Coordinator, KLICK! (Kids Learning in Computer Klubhouses!) Michigan State says:
KLICK! has embraced this unique program
completely! We used it for our week-long Summer Institute and it was the best-received strand of our technology-focused courses, which included robotics, digital video, FLASH! Animation, and Web page authoring. Our kids loved the program and we were impressed with how readily they took to building great models from their computer-generated designs.
We'll be using this as a strand again this summer, now that our 21 partner school districts have weighed in on its merit and how much the kids like it. It's a wonderful introduction to the whole idea of building real objects and tools in a digital environment. |
