All Ahoy

This project focused on the journey of a group of seafarers from the Mediterranean to the Asian region during the 1400s. It was an interactive reality game that involved Mathematics, simple Economics and History, and required students to use different types of intelligence.

Teachers set up an online library for students to research the conditions of this period and for teachers to carve out the scenarios. Students negotiated and collaborated with each other as how best to tackle the task or resolve the problem at hand using a forum (real time or via internet). At the end of the journey students shared with each other the outcomes of their journey on a common platform for all to view.
