Link here for the Home site for the Gesture Based Technology PLC. The site deals with using new technologies for pupils with PMLD/SLD/CLDD.
Our first meeting as a new group is on Thursday October 16th at Trinity Fields School, Ystrad Mynach. (9am for 9:30 start. Finish 3pm) All welcome- but let us know first!
Our central aim is how we use and analyse video evidence as in our work we record a lot of video but what do we do with it afterwards? We will be looking at Video Analysis techniques that are currently used in sports but applying them to educational situations.
Work has already begun on this at Exeter House School on analysing Intensive Interaction sessions- see Andrew Walkers work with AnalysisPro here.
The PLC is co-headed by Exeter House School in Salisbury and Trinity Fields School in Caerphilly but all members are equal and can contribute as much or as little to the group as they can.
There will be a requirement to agree on how we will analyse video evidence and things out in class.
We will also be looking at new developments in Gesture Based Technology throughout the life of the PLC with practical and evidence demonstrations- this will include Kinect, Eyegaze, Leap Motion, Oculus Rift, iPads and touchscreens.
What is Gesture Based Technology? How is it relevant for pupils with special educational needs?
This video will give you an overview.
