WHY FOREST CLASSROOM
Pioneering Botanical Intelligence
Emotionally Intelligent AI
Our agentic AI peers are designed to recognize frustration and provide scaffolded help, encouraging students to persevere and seek guidance effectively.
Personalized Insights
Dynamic data capture that helps educators understand individual learning pathways and emotional engagement in real-time.
Nature-inspired AR
Aligned with Standards
Technology that doesn’t disrupt curricula, but enhances it, fully mapping to global educational standards and outcomes.
After five years of research, using hand-held technology (such as iPads and tablet devices) students are engaging with their learning via a mobile app and AR capable book titled “Hettie and Harry’s Forest Adventure” – specifically written and produced by Berwick Lodge Primary School, in partnership with Deakin University and Dreemar Solutions Pty Ltd.
An innovative platform of multi-sensory learning that uses immersive technology and augmented reality (AR) to engage students with their learning at school and assist with school readiness. Students learn about the natural environment, the senses and sustainability. The AR book is written and developed by Henry Grossek, Liz Frances Symonds, Rob Kelly and Manjeet Singh Usma.
Hettie and Harry’s Forest Adventure will have a range of accompanying lesson resources and engaging real-world activities for educators, teachers and parents alike (such as drumming lessons, songs and mindfulness activities). These AR resources are under development and will be available soon.
