Mobile Content and Walking Documentary: Teaching and Learning Science Step-by-Step With Smartphones
Abstract
This chapter presents creative strategies to teach Science using Smartphones and focuses on projects by researchers and teachers from the international “Big History” network. They teach scientific based knowledge from a cosmic point of view starting from the theory of the Big Bang. A large number of contributors believe that connecting learning to the physical, natural world is the key to stimulating the interest of students before studying the theory in the classroom. This is where Mobile Content is invaluable. A general selection of interesting outdoor learning projects are presented, together with experimental, hypermedia creations achieved by the author in collaboration with scientists. The original concept of a “Walking Documentary” is advanced as a way for students to experience large scales of space and time by walking with a smartphone synchronized with every step of the walker. Finally, some emerging technologies are mentioned, announcing new ways to teach and learn Science with technology.
