The map shows some of the locations with content available for purchase (Some content is also available for free!). These content include

  • Learning Experiences (LEs): interactive lessons that engage learners with questions and activities related to the place they’re visiting.

  • Walking Guides: informative content that teaches learners about the place they’re visiting without any questions/activities.

These LEs and Walking Guides can be used in-location at Places of Interest such as tourist attractions, buildings, zoos or parks.

Journal:

Individual responses to questions in LEs can be stored in the BeED Journal for record keeping and future references. It’s best to include questions to encourage more thought journaling when designing an LE. This way, the Learner can track through their thought process to form new ideas! Furthermore, Learners can also Journal their thoughts and opinions within the Journal function itself. Content Creators can use the Journal to jot down their ideas, too!
