| 188 | - Tangible Landscape and GRASS GIS were used to teach geography topics such as water flow and flooding phenomena to 11 yo students in a secondary school. How cool!! |
| 189 | - The TLMS couples a physical model with its digital model in GRASS GIS via 3D scanning, geospatial processing, and projection. The main advantage of this tangible system is that children can interact with the physical model by hand and see the effects of changes to properties of the model or simulated landscape processes. They can then concentrate on spatial aspects and effects of changing landscape components. |
| 190 | - Students showed an improved understanding of the concept of contours and basic landforms, indicating that the tangible landscape modeling system provides an easy-to-understand concept and teaching tool that improves the geospatial thinking of students. |
