Gasps sounded across the classroom as students from Rosa Parks Elementary School in City Heights clutched shiny new Sprint Samsung “Moment” smart phones specially programmed by Qualcomm to help them learn while they visited Balboa Park.
Using text-messaging, video and e-mail, the students roamed the park’s Botanical Building, following prompts — with help from GPS — that had them analyzing flowers, researching history and collaborating with classmates.
They were immersed in “augmented reality,” an increasingly popular technology that blends the real and digital worlds.

"Genomics Digital Lab (GDL) Project GDL was created in conjunction with ASPB member and GAP winner David Salt's Genomics eXplorer, an interactive walk-through plant cell museum exhibit. GDL, a first place winner in the NSF 2008 Science & Engineering Visualization Challenge, offers a series of curriculum-aligned and integrated games, modules, and interactive simulations covering an array of topics in biology. GDL is a continually expanding interactive on-line environment where users experience the world of biology through discovery-based learning. "
