Museum Signs and Integrating Information Channels

Spent the later morning and early afternoon getting signs made for the city museum. Here is a quick render of what I have so far:



I think that in the coming days I just may add a sign indicating hours of operation. Once that is completed, I will add a few other things that can typically be found in a pedestrian zone plaza in front of a museum: a few benches, flower pots, bicycle rack, etc. One aspect of the 3D digital game-based learning environment that I find particularly attractive is the interactive-visual. Player/learners will have to integrate information passed along a visual channel (e.g., the “Stadtmuseum” sign) with information passed along audio channels (e.g., a NPC who tells the player/learner: “Gehen Sie zum Stadtmuseum”). I’m thinking that the process of piecing this information together in a virtual representation of a real-world space could help foster the growth of stronger mental schemata.
