Brendan’s review

 Brendan had a very original and interesting idea for his project. He would like to create a digital replica of ancient Rome. The goal for this project is to create an interesting educational tool that he could possibly use in the future as a teacher at either the elementary or secondary level. The digital tools he is using to create this replica is both Google Earth and sketchup. He found a creative commons that provides three dimensional buildings that he can input into Google Earth. Using buildings as well as model roman people, he hopes to recreate life in ancient Rome, in a time period he has not quite determined. 

To get his location correct, he has studied numerous maps of ancient Rome. To add to the project, seeing as it was an educational tool, Professor Ross suggested Brendan pursue creating lesson plans etc. I believe this could also be useful.
