Bring GPS into the classroom

Grab your GPS and get out of the car. Look at it. It still knows where you are, right? Walk to the end of the parking lot. When you get there — instead of Turn left or Turn right — you'll discover a whole new dimension to reality.

Mediascapes are rich in interactivity — full of sound and music, images and text, videos and animation, narrative and dialog, all embedded in the space where you’re standing.


Mediascapes offers a free service where users can create an added experience to GPS e.g. if you are visiting a historic site with your students, switch on the GPS and launch your Mediascape to see film footage and listen to music, poetry and narration about what happened there.

Imagine what you could do...
