Virtual Reality Mission




Hey everybody,

I need your help for something. I am currently a Student Admissions Representative (STAR). This basically means that I give tours to parents and students that are thinking of coming to ISKL. There is just one small problem, though. Malaysia is far from many of the countries that some of these parents are moving from. Oftentimes, the entire family can't come and visit the country and the school before they move here. I need your help creating a way that prospective students and parents can explore the school without ever leaving home.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it (you really have no choice), is to create a virtual tour of certain parts of our school to put on Google Maps so that those people that who can't visit the school can see all the great places of our school.



Instructions:
          1) Choose a partner that you could work well with (and trust)!

          2) Using Google Street View on the iPads, work with that partner to photograph 3-4 areas of                    the school with the 3-D photo apps. Think like a marketing person, highlight areas that                          would entice prospective students and parents to pay fees and attend ISKL.

          3) Be sure to avoid reality issues. Make sure that people aren't in the pictures with no heads or                  just a pair of legs showing.

          4) Go to this Document of Instructions to see the instructions that a teacher has used to explain                the process. Before asking any teacher for help, ask a classmate.

          5) Use the design process to make sure that you are planning out your photo locations                                intelligently.

          6) Have fun. Learn about the apps and cameras to make the best tours possible. Remember, you                are now representing the school. Choose the locations wisely. 

          7) Document your learning journey by creating a google doc -  your names_Googlestreetview.                 Reflect on the challenges and positives on this experience. Provide as many examples as                     possible, and also graphic evidence.
