BlueSkySchool: September 2009
http://blue-sky-school.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
New and upcoming learning technologies and tools. Monday, 7 September 2009. Just reading Ollie Bray's. I have been surprised actually how easy it is to develop using AR and how many different software frameworks there are out there for developing resources. One particularly interesting discovery was the integration of the ARTag. And it really is magical to see in action. A search on YouTube will yield numerous demos of AR applications such as this one from Georgia Tech:. Don't be misled by the use of bee...

New and upcoming learning technologies and tools. Thursday, 15 April 2010. Digital Media and Learning Competition. After a tipoff from FutureLab's Flux. Blog, I decided to enter this year's Digital Media and Learning Competition. With a version of the epic cross-curricular Mars Mission based project I blogged about a while back. I called it Mars Missioneers and shoehorned as much detail as I could into the meagre 300 word limit on the application. Here is the finished product:. For the animated narrator ...

BlueSkySchool: Microsoft Visioning
http://blue-sky-school.blogspot.com/2009/06/microsoft-visioning.html
New and upcoming learning technologies and tools. Tuesday, 2 June 2009. I thought I would share a video recently posted on Microsoft's site detailing their vision for the future of education (plus other stuff). Unsurprisingly, interactive surfaces feature heavily as well as videoconferencing, real-time translation and other technologies to do with inter-device communication. I was surprised that gesture interfaces did not feature, considering the recent announcement about Project Natal.

New and upcoming learning technologies and tools. Friday, 30 October 2009. I have been playing about with OpenSim for some time now with the intention of using it for the purposes of teacher CPD initially, but have been bowled over by the educational possibilities for students in the process. The picture left is a view in the upstairs bedroom before the task begins with no items yet placed. And the freeware 3DEM and Terragen. Which enable you to use real terrain data and import it into OpenSim. So I ...
