Features: This book is compiled based on the National "Training Guidance Program for Skilled Shortage Talent in the Field of Computer Application and Software Technology in Secondary Vocational Schools," addressing the current shortcomings of vocational computer textbooks that focus solely on knowledge. The textbook is structured using a "project-driven" teaching approach, integrating knowledge points and professional skill training to organize the content in a way that best facilitates student learning, fully reflecting the guiding principle of "student-centered."
Following the task-driven principle, the book starts with simple and practical basic task examples to help students grasp the fundamental methods and approaches for learning 3DS MAX. The book primarily introduces the basic functions of 3DS MAX and provides in-depth explanations of the combined object functions, 2D graphic modeling functions, and the various functions of the modify command menu in the command panels, as well as the use of particle systems and other command panels. Thought questions and assignments are provided after each lesson and teaching unit. The book emphasizes that each student's work should have its own creativity, creating favorable conditions for the development of students' creative abilities.
To meet the needs of students and beginners, each example comes with a file (.max) included on the accompanying CD-ROM. The final chapter of the book also includes skill training exercises, which are closely related to students' daily lives and learning practices, benefiting their creativity development. This book can serve as a teaching material for multimedia application technology programs in secondary vocational schools, technical schools, vocational colleges, and higher vocational colleges, as well as a practical training manual for multimedia application technology training programs and practical courses in higher vocational institutions.
