Mix I.T. Up
Mix I.T. Up by using static and mobile technologies to produce Mediascapes.
These location–based learning simulations are created by blending digital images, video, audio and interactions within the physical landscape.
See how our students (PP-6) use PDA’s to see the images and hear the sounds of curriculum specific virtual environments.
By utilizing the mobile technologies’ inbuilt GPS functionality, sounds and pictures are automatically triggered in the places we have put them. Penguins outside the year 3 classroom or the geographical South Pole in front of the library are some of the locations that have helped to motivate our students and enhance our learning activities.
