"Time Voyager" is an app that allows students to learn more about their surroundings on the Stanford campus; e.g. which famous start-up was created in which dorm, what people like to do at particular spots on campus, where a Nobel laureate formulated a ground breaking theory. Moreover, students are encouraged to add their own stories and pictures for your own local fame!
The HereNowLearn group is studying how a sense of place enabled by new geo-informed mobile technologies can support learning and community. We're building a fun suite of iphone apps that we hope will more deeply connect students to a sense of place and community.
