Rethinking the commemoration of Indian Residential Schools through digital heritage
This paper examines the use of digital twins – highly accurate virtual models of physical structures created through terrestrial LiDAR scanning – to support the commemoration of heritage sites with difficult histories. In Canada, former Indian Residential School (IRS) buildings are increasingly at risk of loss due to their association with 160 years of government policies aimed at the forced assimilation and colonisation of Indigenous peoples. De…
Geospatial Physicalization in Geography Education
A novel method to create a physicalization of Digital Earth resulted a new type of analogue and tactile geographic information system (GIS). The model was tested by students in Australia, who shared insights into how the model supported their learning about the concept of “overlay” while providing an interesting and engaging learning platform. Observations suggest the model promoted collaborative learning, and provided a bridge between paper maps…
