The chief operating officer (CEO) of AARNET, Chris Hancock, stated, “
AARNet is continually seeking new, innovative technologies to engage Australian students and make the curriculum come alive. The GeoDome is an excellent example of a collaborative, interactive tool that can add real value to the learning process for students from kindergarten to year 12. We are excited about the possibilities that lie ahead with this technology and the benefits it will bring to school children.” [PRwire]
Hancock adds,
“We are using the demonstration at QUESTnet to look beyond the GeoDome’s existing capabilities, to developing our own applications and to further integrate high-definition video conferencing and other interactive learning experiences for students.” [PRwire]
