This document outlines goals and strategies for effectively exhibiting deaf sports collections both in physical exhibitions and online. It discusses creating exhibitions at the Deaf Culture Centre in Toronto that tell the stories and showcase the achievements in deaf sports through engaging displays of documents, photos, artifacts and interactive elements. The goals are to inspire and increase appreciation for deaf athletes and sports while encouraging participation. The proposed design approach aims to transform the space into an inviting, fun environment through strong visual elements and interactive exhibits like reenacting a historic football huddle invention or playing virtual sports games. Lectures and workshops would also be included to bring the exhibitions to life. Online, deafplanetsportsvillage.com is highlighted as an award-winning website that could

"How to create an educational game on tablet for kids" by Emmanuel Rouiller (...
The document discusses plans to develop a mobile app game for children aged 8-12 visiting the Castle of Fontainebleau. The goals are to attract young visitors through an original narrative, create interaction with the surroundings, and transmit knowledge about the site's heritage. The chosen approach is a serious game called "The Kings' Real Estate, the House of the Centuries." It uses challenges, puzzles and manipulations related to different rooms to engage children in learning about the French monarchy and symbols of royal power represented throughout the castle. The project underwent development, testing and refinement from 2012-2014.
Rain forest
Rain forests are located near the equator, contain over ten million trees that grow very close together, and experience heavy rainfall. The rain forest is home to many animal species like sloths, bats, monkeys, armadillos, anteaters, jaguars, snakes, and alligators. The dense forest contains various plant life such as vines, buttress roots, kapok trees, pieter plants, epiphytes, lianas, and orchids that have adapted to the hot, wet climate. Animals live in the rain forest to find shelter and hide from predators.
Librarian at adams
The librarian's goals are to teach information seeking skills and encourage pleasure reading. To make the library more effective, the librarian collaborates with teachers on curriculum planning and instruction. Major units are organized around themes and integrate a variety of activities and resources to engage different learning styles. The exemplary library integrates information literacy skills into the classroom curriculum so students learn how to interact with and apply information immediately. The librarian acts as a resource specialist while teachers are content specialists, and they work together through brainstorming and flexible scheduling of library time.

Interpreting Cultures Week 3
This document discusses interpreting culture in museums and focuses on three key points:
1. Bourdieu and Darbel argue that visitors need "cultural capital" like knowledge of art history and context to fully engage with works, otherwise they may feel overwhelmed.
2. Beverley Serrell's approach is to have a clear "big idea" for each exhibition that relates to all the labels and allows visitors to understand the overall theme.
3. Success criteria for exhibitions should be identified, such as whether visitors can articulate the "big idea" and feel it has meaning, in order to evaluate success.

Digital movie making4
The document discusses digital storytelling, which refers to using digital tools to help ordinary people tell their own stories in short films combining narration, images, and music. Digital storytelling is an expression of ancient storytelling adapted for modern technology. Effective digital stories weave images, music, narrative and voice together to give depth and color to characters and experiences. While technology can enhance a story, it cannot compensate for a weak story, script or storyboard. The document provides guidelines for the elements of an effective story and standards for integrating digital media and storytelling into the classroom in a way that engages students and enhances learning.
Information as the Atomic Level of Storytelling
Presented at World Information Architecture Day 2017 in Ann Arbor, MI, this case study describes the information strategy & experience design work to allow a museum to utilize a vast collection of artifacts to tell stories and foster exploration. The museum's digital transformation of their artifact collection allowed them to become a content publisher, creating engaging story formats using an artifact card -- a digital trojan horse packed full of metadata, media and surprises.
Music Origins Project Educational Overview
The Music Origins Project is challenging students to learn STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math skills through the fun and compelling lens of music. We are teaching students to research, add new locations to the map, to define and document new and emerging genres of music. Students and music aficionados will be challenged to create unique virtual museums documenting locations important to each musical genre covered. We are also challenging students and volunteers to research musical genres to create documentary shorts, and mashup videos and post them along with musical samples, mixes, images and other “primary source” historic documents, to create multimedia “virtual museums” highlighting popular places and musical venues important to music history adding a compelling nuance to the existing body of musical knowledge.

Design for Mobile Workshop
This document summarizes Nancy Proctor's presentation on designing visitor-led mobile experiences for museums. The presentation covered interpreting content for mobile audiences, focusing on their questions and needs rather than dictating information. Proctor discussed moving from a top-down "headphones" model where the museum controls information, to a more open "microphone" approach where visitors can contribute their own questions, comments and knowledge. She provided examples of organizing content thematically or by location, and choosing appropriate platforms and voices to convey key messages to different audience types. The goal is engaging visitors and facilitating their own meaningful conversations about museum collections.

Stopping by Woods
The poem describes a traveler stopping in the woods on a snowy evening to watch the snow fill the woods. His horse finds it strange to stop without a nearby farmhouse between the dark woods and frozen lake on the darkest night of the year. The only sounds are the jingling of the horse's harness bells and the sweep of the wind and falling snow. Though the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, the traveler has promises to keep and miles left to travel before resting for the night.
Outsiders newspaper specifications
A newspaper article summarizes a rumble between rival gangs in an empty lot from The Outsiders. The article describes how 10 "juvenile delinquents" were confronted by 10 "well known honorable young men" and a fight broke out.

Create learning communities quote exchange
This activity involves students sharing quotes with each other to get to know different perspectives on an upcoming unit of study. The teacher hands out quote strips for students to read and think about how it relates to the unit. Students then walk around and exchange quotes with at least five other classmates within five minutes. The teacher participates as well to model engagement and ensure all students are on task. Tips are provided for redirecting reluctant students, such as asking to see their quote, suggesting who to talk to first, and practicing what they will say about the quote. The goal is for students to learn from multiple perspectives of their peers.
