“…Using interactive sliders, the user can learn the impact of the selection of various landscape elements on ES trade-offs. While computing limitations required the use of an additional software to create photo-realistic landscape visualizations in this case study, fully featured game engines for independent low-budget game developers have become available at low price (Bishop et al, 2009;Pumpa, Wyeld, & Adkins, 2006), and could provide the next steps in such decision-support systems. For example, Unity (Unity Technologies, 2012) is a development engine for the creation of interactive 3D content with very high level of detail with regard to the visual landscape representation and high performance enabling smooth walk-throughs of virtual landscapes.…”

“…The authors identify that to ensure a smoother integration of Indigenous knowledge in to formalized Western-based curriculum, pedagogical methods and best practices for applying them have to be identified. Pumpa et al (2006) created a proof-of-concept prototype for archiving Indigenous knowledge in a digital landscape. As future work, the authors identified that the collaborative techniques used to create this content require more formalized research methodologies.…”

Many Indigenous learners worldwide find the learning materials presented in current educational settings culturally irrelevant. A lack of relevant learning materials within formal education settings subscribing to Western Euro-centric curriculum standards is a key factor. Learning materials provided through modelling, practice, and apprenticeship, are desired. With the literature identifying the lack of a formal curriculum design process, a framework is presented for standardized creation of learning objects for Indigenous learners. To determine the efficacy of the framework, two case study examples and prototype tools were presented to Indigenous knowledge expert interviewees to identify strengths, weaknesses and additional benefits to the proposed framework. Incorporating learners in the design process from the beginning was highlighted as being a very positive approach. The benefits of this research include that it provides an interface, in the form of a prototype, to allow educators to create relevant and authentic learning for Indigenous learners. Additional work is needed on simplifying the process of knowledge creation for educators and on ensuring that any knowledge used maintains cultural and contextual meaning to the communities in which it was generated.
