Geo-contextualised visualisation for teaching and learning in the field

Abstract

Teaching students themes related to geomorphological processes and landforms requires the integration of knowledge about process working at different scales, the particular processes themselves varying at different times to form unique landscapes. While the generality of individual processes may be understood, unpacking the particular history behind a specific view requires considerable spatial aptitude and imagination of the students, as the teaching vignettes of Figure 1 identify. Geo-contextualised visualisation forms one potential means of tackling this subject-specific communication issue, working alongside more traditional pedagogic approaches. This paper firstly discusses a geo-contextualised mobile PDA application used for teaching students geomorphology, and outlines further development work underway that will allow the progression of these mobile teaching and learning resources within an immersive AR system using a head-mounted display (HMD).
