Notes:
What resources, particularly technologies, will be required? Smart phones and tablets are required, so the students take pictures. Image draw and image processing web tools are required as well. A digital 3D printer would be a great asset, in case there is. In the printer, we could create 3D simulations of the buildings. Web tools: artsteps for the virtual museum, pizap for photos’ editing
