AR exhibition of Hispanic festivals placed around the school grounds for Grade 8 visitors

Grade 11 (Year 12, age 16 to 17) · 200 min · 1 device per student; school tablets for AR viewing

Each student researches one festival, such as Las Fallas in Valencia, Día de Muertos in Mexico or Inti Raymi in Peru, and builds a small exhibit in CoSpaces Edu from 3D objects and images, with three recorded commentaries in Spanish that play when a visitor taps an object. Over three lessons students script and record the commentaries, and the teacher checks the language before they are added. On exhibition day each exhibit has a marked spot in the school grounds, and Year 9 Spanish learners walk the route in small supervised groups, opening each scene in AR on a school tablet and answering one question in Spanish at each stop. Scenes are shared by class code within the school only.

Why this is Creative Amplify

Students create their own exhibit, writing and recording the Spanish commentary and choosing what to show. A cultural exhibition with spoken commentary is a task the class could run with display boards; the AR scenes add 3D objects placed in the grounds and commentary that plays on a tap, which Year 9 can replay at their own pace.

Watch out

AR is a new medium for the same exhibition, so it stays Amplify unless the task itself changes, for example exhibits coded to respond to what the visitor says or does.
