Digital Palace Explorers: An On-site Storytelling Application for Families at the Tower of London

Abstract

Our team adapted key elements of The Palace Explorers Program, an activity that combines online and on-site sessions to teach Key Stage 2 pupils about the Tower of London, to create an on-site, mobile digital application for families. We also provided the Education Department of Historic Royal Palaces a framework for our design process and a template for programming the application so that it could be modified and replicated at other sites overseen by Historic Royal Palaces
