Launched as a tripartite collaboration between Crescent Girls’ School (CGS), Serl.io and Microsoft, cutting-edge Mixed Reality (MR) technology comes to the classroom in the form of holographic virtual simulations that transport students across locations and time.
This MR learning experience is the first implemented in Singapore, leveraging on the simplicity and portability of the Microsoft HoloLens to target the present education curriculum.
Students from the school demonstrated a classroom module designed by Serl.io that allowed participants to experience firsthand the process and effects of gene mutation and food webs as part of an upper secondary Biology module entitled “Eco-lysis”.
With the ability to transport students to far-flung places, warp time effortlessly, and to provide access to otherwise prohibitively expensive and difficult-to-use specialist scientific instrument, MR is the ideal vehicle for certain portions of the school curriculum that can be inaccessible or theoretical.
Through the HoloLens, teams of four students choose specialisations as ecologists or geneticists, and explore a nuclear disaster site to conduct field work studying the effect of nuclear fallout.
By transporting themselves seamlessly to different locations and time periods before and after the incident, students are able to collaborate to collect cross-sectional samples of water, soil and wildlife. After which, students utilise virtual representations of specialist equipment like gene sequencers, geiger counters and stereo microscope to assess the effects of nuclear radiation on the environment.
With plans to extend the use of MR applications to other fields of science, or even beyond, HoloLens emerges as an ideal choice of platform. A fully self-contained holographic computer running Windows 10, the HoloLens is easy-to-operate, with no cables and controls to fiddle with.
Teachers play an important role in overseeing content and providing feedback to developers from Serl.io. By piquing interest in students prior to the MR experience and conducting effective reflection sessions after, students are able to absorb the most from the MR Learning Experience.
Effective monitoring and supervision by teachers can be performed through their laptops, where they are able to monitor the progress, camera feeds and battery levels of a full class of students.
This demonstration was held in conjunction with the 6th Digital Age Learning Conference (DALC) held in CGS. Eco-lysis will be implemented as part of the Biology curriculum across all Secondary Four Biology classes in the school.

a questione è presa molto seriamente, direi quasi una missione…
“Abusare di un prodotto di eccellenza come il tartufo tende a strumentalizzarne il pregio. È sempre più importante che il cliente vada anche educato e sensibilizzato: ogni tartufo ha il suo profumo, il suo aroma, il suo gusto. Alcuni tartufi ritrovano il proprio fascino proprio nel fatto che non sono così aromatici come un tartufo bianco o addirittura hanno un gusto e un profumo non del tutto proprio del tartufo presente nell’immaginario comune che la gente si
“Oggi la tendenza sempre più diffusa, in particolare d’estate, è accostare il tartufo al pesce, nei primi piatti e nelle cruditeé. Sta molto bene anche con alcuni dolci, si pensi alle torte al cioccolato che Istra Tartufi propone con sopra una grattata di petali di tartufo. Oppure si pensi al miele millefiori al tartufo bianco che si accompagna divinamente ai formaggi, sia freschi che più stagionati. Il mio accostamento preferito è un velo di miele al tartufo bianco, emblema della bella Istria, su un pecorino sardo stagionato sei mesi della mia amata Sardegna, magari accompagnate da un bicchiere di virile e corposo cannonau o da un autoctono refosco istriano invecchiato: poesia.”
HoloLens mixed reality is another way to get realization how tengible things exist in the real world. Students can use their experience with Serl.io learning space and essaytyper.pro editors for hire in the company, teachers can be sure that every single detail is made to engage a digital generation of students.
