ASH What is a Virtual Control Room? Electronic learning environment based on a real control room Cultural Heritage Applications
ASH A whole class of students will collaborate in thevirtual control room Cultural Heritage Applications
ASH They will work in small groups either on an island or in “open space” Cultural Heritage Applications
ASH - Edutainment • Students run collaboratively a whole mission • During this mission they learn about astronomy, space science, earth science, physics, chemistry, biology, ... Cultural Heritage Applications
Role Play - Islands • Each student gets a specific role engineer, scientist, mission controller,...) • Islands group different roles together to a team to complete a mission Cultural Heritage Applications
Pedagogical Concepts • Rather “hands on” than classical, unilateral information transfer • Collaborative experience • Role playing Cultural Heritage Applications
Modular components • Hardware configuration: islands • either multifunctional (all roles on one table) • or specific (one role per table) Cultural Heritage Applications
System Mission Lecture 1 (physics) Lecture 2 (jet propulsion) Lecture 3 (astronomy) Modular components • Teachware: plug-in architecture • load different missions • embed different lectures into missions Cultural Heritage Applications
Technology • Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality • new interface paradigms • handling objects naturally in 3d space • Multimedia • Stereo Projection • one large projection for all • Touch Screens • for specific role tasks Cultural Heritage Applications
Mission Example How old is the universe? • Apply different techniques to observation results to estimate the age of the universe • Groups evaluate and compare their results Cultural Heritage Applications
Mission Example Mission to Mars • operator role: telemetry, surveillance • scientist role: conducting experiments • engineer role: vehicle construction and control Cultural Heritage Applications
