EaRL AR Town Mat from Hope Education
EaRL AR Town Mat from Hope Education
Product code: CP00054086
Product Description
Explore new worlds with the AR Town EaRL Mat and Findel Free EaRL AR App! Program EaRL (not included) to explore real world scenarios while navigating around the town, completing challenges and unlocking exciting augmented reality elements.
Developed to achieve the objectives from the computing national curriculum, students can work independently, in pairs or in groups to get EaRL to where each step of the challenges asks. Once the correct grid number is written in the app, the challenge will show the AR or move on to the next step.
EaRL (not included) provides a hands-on coding and programming experience for students, allowing them to apply these computing concepts practically and engagingly. By programming EaRL to navigate environments, solve challenges, and interact with different elements of the AR mat, students can develop their understanding of algorithms, sequencing, and debugging. They also gain experience using logical reasoning to predict and control the robot’s behaviour. This can achieve cross-curricular objectives beyond computing, relating to Maths regarding Place Value and Coordinates and English with instructional writing.
The challenges are suitable for both KS1 and KS2 and can be adapted to suit different ability levels. The Free app is easily downloadable by searching ‘Findel EaRL AR’ or by clicking the link under Useful Links on this listing.
Use our Teachers Notes on the EaRL landing page for top tips, a summary of challenges and the answers.
Features include: dimensions 1.5m x 1.5m, tough wipe clean surface, suitable for all settings, easily transportable and can be packed away for storage.
