Views and Sounds from Murcia

Description “Views and Sounds from Murcia” is a Treasure Hunt (TH) work format in which children will have to complete tasks and to get clues in order to answer the final question. Until here “Views and Sounds from Murcia” would be a normal activity but the most attractive point of this one is to use Augmented Reality as the mechanism (in the current case which we are dealing of it will be Layar program) which allow children to join reality to knowledge, learning in an interactive way.

This activity requires; Layar mobile application, QR Reader, a smartphone and also interest, initiative, thirst for adventure… To know how to use Layar app please be sure to check out this video. For this task we will need the layer called Murcia Views which we can localize using Layar browser inside Layar application. This layer includes 20 points of interest (POI) in which the program displays a short description about the place where you are and, at the end of the description, it shows where the QR Code is since you will need it in order to get the next step.

Explanation (teacher’s version)

Page 4: Treasure Hunt: Views and Sounds from Murcia

Views and Sounds from Murcia

Basic Explanation In order to complete “Views and Sounds from Murcia” TH children will have to be sure they have checked out all POIs. For that, there is one requirement which will assess that students have been in all places which constitute the route: When children arrive to a POI they will have to write a tweet about the place where they are (using the correspondent hashtag) but also enclosing an image in which pupils will have to be with the rest of their group (obviously, one person will be left because he/she will be taking the photo).

Making the Treasure Hunt may be quite easy, in fact, you (students of Bilingual Primary Education) are going to notice that questions are not too difficult because this task is for children who are 9 or 10 years old. However, despite questions may result simple for answering, in this TH pupils will have to follow a structure for getting a new step. Next slide explains how the system is about in “Views and Sounds from Murcia”.

Explanation (teacher’s version)

Page 5: Treasure Hunt: Views and Sounds from Murcia

Views and Sounds from Murcia

Basic Explanation First of all, Layar application and QR Reader must be available during all the TH because getting a new POI will be the combination of using first Layar and, then, QR Reader.

Here is the structure which children will have to follow in order to complete the task:

- Pupils will have to use Layar application for localizing where the POI is. The GPS from Layar will show them how long they are from the point they have to go to. Once children have arrived to the POI which they were finding an action will appear (an URL in the majority of cases but its appearance also depends on the radius meters and distance in which you are so please be patient). Pupils will have to click the URL and it will redirect them to a short description about the place where they are. Please (if you are group which is going to make this TH), you MUST read the description and to pay attention to it because it also contains where the QR Code is hidden and without the QR you will not get the

next step.

Explanation (teacher’s version)

Page 6: Treasure Hunt: Views and Sounds from Murcia

Views and Sounds from Murcia

Basic Explanation Once children have used Layar, they have localized your POI, they have read the description and they already know where the QR Code is hidden pupils will have to spend some time looking for it, but in the majority of cases it has been stuck on clear and visible surfaces. Practical example:

- Let’s imagine you have already found the QR Code. The next step will be to open your QR Reader application and focusing on the code. Once the

smartphone has indentified the QR Code it will show you a URL which you have to follow. This URL will be an image which contains a question (this section has been explained before but I will try to describe it again for avoiding problems). This question only has two answers, in fact, all questions have a right answer and an incorrect answer. Answers are always names of places so the answer which you choose will be the POI where you will have to go to. If you choose the correct answer it will not be any problem because you will arrive to a new POI where there is also a POI Layer about the place and the QR Code with the question which will allow you the get another POI.

Explanation (teacher’s version)

Page 7: Treasure Hunt: Views and Sounds from Murcia

Views and Sounds from Murcia

Basic Explanation Nevertheless, if you choose the mistaken answer you will go to a place where it is also a POI but, when you finish reading the description about the place you will notice there is not any mention about the QR Code location and as result you will understand you have failed choosing the answer and you will have the return to the place where you were before (in the case you do not remember the other answer of the question which you have failed) or going directly to the place which was included in the other option which you had not chosen.

As we have said, “Views and Sounds from Murcia” is constituted by 20 POIs but, if children do not fail any question they will only go by 10 right places, that is, although there are 20 POIs, 10 of them are correct but the other tenth ones are incorrect.

Furthermore, if there are 10 right places there will also be 10 questions so, for completing the task, they will have to answer ten questions in a correct way.

Explanation (teacher’s version)

Views and Sounds from Murcia

Basic Tools The necessary tools for making this task will be:

- Layar application with the correspondent Layer and user (it will be explained later).

- QR Reader.

- Twitter; also remember that the task will not be valid if children do not write a tweet about where they are and also enclosing a photo of their group in the

place which they are mentioning (using #MurciaVyS1112 hashtag).

Little summarize about you (students) have to do:1. Find the POI with Layar application, when you are

near of it an action will appear on Layar.2. Click the URL action which redirects you to a

description about the place and also the QR Code location.

3. Once you have found the QR Code, you use your smartphone which redirects you to the question.

4. Finally, after answering the question you have to go the place of the answer which you have chosen, and then you will arrive to another POI where you will have to repeat these steps.

Basic Tools

Layar Application

For using the “Views and Sounds from Murcia” Layer pupils will have to log in with a specific account which will be this:

Name of account: cuentaparaict

Password: rict1112

If you are going to make this activity, please, remember you have to login in “Become a developer” section in order to chose the correct layer for this task. The title of the layer is Murcia Views and the layer name is viewsandsoundsfrommurcia. Although the layer is already made, maybe I will be modifying some aspects as colours, icons, little images or other things

so do not feel surprised if you start to test the layer and one day the title is green and next day it is blue, do not worry about it, the information is the same.

Views and Sounds from Murcia

Basic Tools We think that is all children have to know for

completing this task. Anyway, if they have any doubt or question please they can feel free to drop us (the producers) a line on our email or asking us about the matter. The last important thing (this point is for Students of Bilingual Primary Education), please, inform me in advance the day you are going to make the task because QR Codes are not stuck on the places yet since from here to the day you decide to make the activity it is possible that some of them had disappeared so please communicate me when you are going to complete the TH for planning my day and for being free if you have some problems.

Are you ready my dear friends?

Because…I think I am not yet. I have to go to the toilet before, thanks.

Views and Sounds from MurciaExplanation (teacher’s version)

The Route“Views and Sounds from Murcia” starts in Renfe Train Station (this one is included as the first POI). Children will find a QR Code which has been stuck on a streetlight (throughout the trip QR Codes will be stuck on streetlights, bins, posters and other public elements, later, it will be explained the QR Code’s function). Then, thanks to this code students will go to Floridablanca Garden where, again, they will find another QR Code which will lead them to the next landmark called Old Bridge or Peligros’s Bridge. Once they are there, they will have to go to Veronicas Square or Veronicas Market where they will find the next QR Code which will guide them to Flowers’ Square. After being there, they will go to Gran Via street (despite it is very long, Gran Via street is also included as a POI). Next, children will cross Gran Via street and they will place in front of Murcia’s Cathedral, in Cardenal Belluga’s Square. Thanks to another QR Code, students will go through Trapería Street and there, another Code will send them to Redonda Square. Finally, once they have arrived to Redonda Square, they will finish their route in Fofó Park (despite we said the maximum distance would be between Renfe Train Station and Redonda Square we decided to include Fofó Park because it is one of the most sounding places from Murcia).

CORRECT

ROUTE:

10 POI’S

Page 12: Treasure Hunt: Views and Sounds from Murcia

Views and Sounds from MurciaExplanation (teacher’s version)

The RouteOnce explained the Correct Route, we have to say there are other 10 incorrect POI’s where children may go if they do not choose the right answer of the question from the QR Code. The list of 10 mistaken places is: San Andrés Bus Station, La Seda Garden, Sto. Domingo Square, Saavedra Fajardo Market, Murcia Town Council, Fama Avenue, Merced Square, Seiquer Alejandro Street, Juan XXIII Square, and Science’s Museum.

The mechanism is explained next: the child arrives to a POI’s, he/she focus on the QR Code with the smartphone and the technological device shows a question with two answers. If the child chooses the correct answer, he/she will go to the next landmark but, if he/she chooses the incorrect answer he/she will go to one of the 10 mistaken places which have been exposed on the top. Once the child arrives to the incorrect POI’s he/she will also find a QR Code but when he/she check this code he/she will realize he/she is in the incorrect place because the mobile phone does not show any question to get the next landmark but only information about the place where he/she is.

QR CodesQR Code is the trademark for a type of matrix barcode which consists of black modules arranged in a square pattern on a white background. The information encoded can be made up of four standardized kinds of data, or through supported extensions, virtually any kind of data.

In “Views and Sounds from Murcia” every POI will have a QR Code (they will be stuck on public elements and they will be clear and visible). When the child focus on this kind of system with the mobile phone, this one will redirect immediately to an image which will include the next format: 1. A close question with two answers. The correct answer will be the name of the next landmark where students have to go. On the other hand, the mistaken answer will be the name of another place where, when children go, they only find a QR Code with information about the site, but not with some question or tips for the next POI.

In addition, each QR Code will also include a clue for the final question so the true merit is not only to follow the correct route but also to get all tips in order to answer the final question which is the most important part of the game.

Explanation (teacher’s version)

Page 16: Treasure Hunt: Views and Sounds from Murcia

Views and Sounds from MurciaExplanation (teacher’s version)

QR CodesAs we have mentioned, the first POI is Renfe Train Station so, in order to go there, besides of receiving the TH instructions, children will also receive a QR Code which will include the first question:

Imagine you were in Murcia in the 20’s, you want to make a long trip but you have not got any car, you have to go to a transport station so, which of these transport stations was already available in the 20’s in our region?

A: San Andrés Bus Station.

B: El Carmen (Renfe) Train Station.

The correct answer is El Carmen (Renfe) Train Station and, therefore, this one would be the first POI where children have to go using Layar as the device which explains the place and, also, at the end of the description mentions in which part of Renfe Train Station is the next QR Code with the next question to get the second POI.

Page 17: Treasure Hunt: Views and Sounds from Murcia

Views and Sounds from MurciaExplanation (teacher’s version)

QR CodesOn the other hand, if children had chosen San Andrés Bus Station, they would have gone to the first incorrect POI which it is not included in the list of the 10 POI’s which constitute the right route. Once they have arrived to San Andrés Bus they would focus on the station with the smartphone and, after reading the Layar description from the place they will realize that it does not include any explanation about they can find the QR Code and, as a result, they will be aware of they had chosen the incorrect answer and they will have to go to Renfe Train Station which is the right and first POI.

In addition, this QR Code about the Renfe Train Station question also includes a clue for getting the final question, the first tip is:

“I’m watching you right now”.

Views and Sounds from Murcia

As we have said, each question which is codified in the QR Code also includes a clue for answering the final question. Maybe, among all people (if we are thinking the activity in chronological age, that is, if we are thinking in students from Bilingual Primary Education) could answer the final question without making this TH but we have to think this activity is oriented to 9 – 10 years old children and it is possible that they do not know the answer of the final question

yet.

The final question will appear at the end of the game, that is, in the last POI. The last place also includes a QR Code but this will not redirect you to a normal question but to the final question because there are not any more POIs and, the cherry of the cake will be answering this question for wining the game.

For replying children will have to recollect all the clues which they have won by answering the other 10 questions and then to start thinking about what the

solution may be.
