| Building Perspective
Description: Building Perspective
is an award-winning game that helps students develop spatial perception,
problem-solving, and visual reasoning skills. Using technology, students
compare and contrast four side views of buildings to construct a top view
of 3 x 3, 4 x 4, or 5 x 5 city blocks with buildings of different heights.
As they solve visual puzzles of
increasing difficulty by extrapolating information from side views and
constructing a hypothesis of the top view, students establish deductive
reasoning, visual memory, spatial perception and sequencing skills. They
become higher order thinkers when they deal with the advanced problems
on the program that may have incomplete or seemingly conflicting information.
They also develop the rational "eye" needed for quality performance
in art, design, geometry and trigonometry.
Online help is available, and a
Teacher's Guide provides materials and extension activities.
