<div style="text-align: center;">
Year Three wanted to use the Google Cardboards and Street View to navigate the local community. They were looking particularly at the services that were available such as ; the Police Station, Banks, Supermarkets etc.</div>

<div class="p1">
Last year when we undertook this project, the students found it clumsy trying to navigate to the Yonhi - Dong area and then finding the appropriate photos which had been submitted by other people.</div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
To make it a more useful project we took our own 360 degree photos around the community. This mean't we had photos in locations where the students could find what they were looking for.</div>
<div class="p1">
It was a straightforward process uploading the photos from the camera to the iphone and then into Google StreetView. (The Ricoh software allows you upload directly to Street View so it may cut out a couple of steps).</div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
For the students they were able to take the iPads in their classroom, open Street View and then select the location icon. This took them straight to the Yonhi-Dong area. They then scrolled through the available photos until they found one submitted by the teacher. By clicking on the teacher's profile picture they were then about to see all 10 photo that had been uploaded. The students were also able to scroll through them easily and check off the services they were looking for.</div>
<div class="p1">
The project was a success as the students were able to spend time looking for the services in the community and the technology did not get in the way.</div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="p1">
This was a great lesson to do as a precursor to actually taking a walk through the community.<br />
<br />
The photos could also be upload to be viewed in Pagoda or on any web platform. Images were uploaded to 360 Player site (<a href="https://360player.io/">https://360player.io</a>) where you can create a free account.<br />
You then can either copy the link or the embed code and paste it to any site. In Pagoda you place it in the "Embed the Web" content block.</div>

<span style="font-size: 13.2px; line-height: 18.48px;">When students are new to Google Draw, it is important to layer skills in short bursts, and then practice them again and again creating poems. When they are set with their skills, teach them a little more and have them go back through created poems, adding in the skill. We have found the sequence of skills works best as follows:</span></div>

However, not having thought through the key points of what they want to say also is a barrier to efficient filming. We would recommend students bulletpoint their key points for each frame of their storyboard and practice the delivery.</span></span><br />

They repeat the exercise a few weeks later to identify changes.<br />Previously, students drew what they saw on a worksheet. This was developed, where students took iPads and photographed the plants to help them remember what they saw.<br /><br />This idea has been taken one step further where the photos taken by the students were embedded in a Smart Notebook file to become a matching game.<br />This allowed the class to play the game and talk about the differences they saw in the plants that did not match as well as the changes in the plants over Spring.<br />The activity also allows for students to go back and review using the game.<br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EHhCSwBCI8o/VV5v7mGpcjI/AAAAAAAAAUs/iwNPCtJEg5Y/s1600/match%2Bthe%2Bplants.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="156" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EHhCSwBCI8o/VV5v7mGpcjI/AAAAAAAAAUs/iwNPCtJEg5Y/s320/match%2Bthe%2Bplants.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="http://sfset.blogspot.kr/2015/04/creating-simple-matching-game-in.html">How to create a simple matching game</a></div><br /><br /><b>Challenges</b><br />Students taking photos consistently and then matching them up in the document.<br />The logistics of taking the photos off the iPads and embedding them relatively straight forward. It would be recommended to down size the images because they were over one Mb in size.<br /><br /><br /><b>Opportunities</b><br />Although the activity was great to have in a Smart Notebook file, the teacher would have liked it to be available on the iPad for more than one child to use independently. After playing around with HTML5 and Java options, it was found that using an existing app was the best option.<br />Started exploring an app called <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/stick-around-by-tony-vincent/id557949353?mt=8">Stick Around</a>, which has real potential throughout the school for self checking review (K - 12).<br /><br /><b>Resources needed</b><br />iPads<br />Smart Notebook<br /><br /><br /><b>Time involved</b><br />Nature walk to take photos with the iPad 30 - 40 minutes<br />Creating the Smartboard activity 30 minutes<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>Contact information</b><br /><a href="mailto:eugenia.chan@seoulforeign.com">eugenia.chan@seoulforeign.com</a><br /><a href="mailto:alan.hoskin@seoulforeign.com">alan.hoskin@seoulforeign.com</a><br /><br /></div>Site Adminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14779661057014112450noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6077560697397971045.post-90502581249773302032015-04-15T01:20:00.000-07:002015-11-23T17:34:45.964-08:00Florence Nightingale in virtual reality<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="281" mozallowfullscreen="" src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/125756935" webkitallowfullscreen="" width="500"></iframe><br></br><b>by Renata Prest </b>(Year 2 teacher)<b> and Alan Hoskin </b>(Digital Literacy Coach)<br /><b><br /></b><b><br /></b><b>Grade/Year level: Year 2</b><br /><br /><br /><b>SAMR</b><br /><b><br /></b>Modification<br /><br /><br /><b>Description</b><br /><br />The purpose of this project was for students to take what they had learned about Florence Nightingale and write a script about an important event in her life. They were arranged in groups of 2 - 4 students depending on the number of characters needed for the scene.<br />This fulfilled the writing task they were working on as well as practicing to speak in front of an audience.<br />Once the script was checked and the actors had practiced their parts, they were filmed in front of a green scene so images from Florence's life or pictures of Victorian scenes could be inserted.<br /><br />Originally the filmed scenes were going to be edited in iMovie and then placed up on Haiku for the students and parents. Alan had seen an app called Aurasma demonstrated at a conference that would allow objects to trigger the playing of content such as video clips from an iPad.<br />The scenes chosen for the iMovie back drops were printed and became the triggers for the students movies making it look like they were performing in the picture.<br />This allowed the pictures to be displayed on the wall along with questions for students to answer. With the iPad in hand students could answer the questions by hovering the iPad over the picture (with the Aurasma app open) and a movie (or Aura) would play.<br /><br /><b>Challenges</b><br />The part that took the longest was writing the script. More time needed to be attached to this part of the process to get quality writing.<br /><br /><b>Opportunities</b><br />The use of the Aurasma app adds a new dimension to viewing displays. How easy it was for students to move from one scene to the next allowed for review of answers. The app and associated website is free allowing teachers to setup Aurasma quickly and easily on their iPads as well as the use of Aurasma Studio on the web for making content accessible to school iDevices as well as parent devices.<br /><br /><b>Resources needed</b><br />iMovie with green scene feature (on school Mac machines and iPads)<br />Green Screen materials available in ES, BS and MS<br /><a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/aurasma/id432526396?mt=8">Aurasma app</a> (for iDevice and Android) free to play Auras<br /><a href="https://studio.aurasma.com/login">Aurasma Studio</a>, web based, free subscription<br /><br /><b>Time involved</b><br />Writing the script - 1 hour<br />Practising - 20 minutes<br />Filming - 40 minutes<br />Editing - 3 hours<br />Creating for the Aurasma app (first time) - 3 hours<br /><br /><b>Contact information</b><br />Renata Priest: <a href="mailto:renata.prest@seoulforeign.com">renata.prest@seoulforeign.com</a><br />Alan Hoskin:<a href="mailto: alan.hoskin@seoulforeign.com"> alan.hoskin@seoulforeign.com</a><br /><br /></div>Site Adminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14779661057014112450noreply@blogger.com1
