Ambient Wood: Demonstration of a Digitally Enhanced Field Trip for Schoolchildren
نویسندگان
چکیده
This demonstration shows parts of the Ambient Wood experience project which has taken place in an English woodland setting during the past year. The project provides a playful learning experience for schoolchildren on a digitally enhanced field trip. A WiFi network was installed in the woods to enable communication with PDAs and a collection of innovative devices was designed to aid interactive exploration of the woods. Most of the devices that were employed are available for conference attendees to use along with a facilitator’s terminal. A video of the schoolchildren using the devices in the woodland is also shown.
