Designing Digital Antiquity: Classical Archaeology In New Virtual Applications, William Loder Dec 2021

Designing Digital Antiquity: Classical Archaeology In New Virtual Applications, William Loder

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

In this thesis, I argue that the combination of existing archaeological theory with game design theory offers an innovative avenue for creating serious 3D applications of archaeological sites in virtual reality that can be productively used for pedagogical, research, and outreach solutions. In this thesis, I engage with the archaeological theories of phenomenology and sensory studies, briefly touching on structure and agency as well as discussion of some current digital applications in use in the field. For this project, I am interested in game design theory as it relates to education and I view Virtual Reality as an important tool …

Roman Britain To Germanic England: A Settlement Study Of Military Sites In Northern England From Ad 300 – 600, Bronwynn Meredydd Lloyd

Culture, Society, and Praxis

The Late-Roman/Anglo-Saxon transition has been heavily debated for the last twenty years. A hard and fast line has been drawn between the Roman and Anglo-Saxon periods leaving an impression of a cataclysmic end to the Roman occupation and a forceful takeover by Germanic tribes. Lloyd analyzes in this well researched piece prevalent interpretations of the settlement layout and building construction offered for the military settlements of Catterick, York, and Birdoswald in Northern England. The author contends that to understand the transition it is necessary to pay attention to the development of a distinct Romano-British population that emerged during the period …

The Real World Of Teaching In Hadrian’S Virtual Villa, Lynne Kvapil Oct 2017

The Real World Of Teaching In Hadrian’S Virtual Villa, Lynne Kvapil

Scholarship and Professional Work - LAS

A virtual 3D simulation of Hadrian's Imperial Villa at Tivoli, created as part of the Hadrian's Villa Project, was the centerpiece of a course module that combined Problem-based Learning with virtual world technology. The module asked students to use different learning environments, like the virtual villa, to solve ancient world problems focused on the life of the emperor Hadrian. The benefits and challenges of combining PBL with virtual world technology in the classroom are discussed here. Sample lesson plans from the course are also included.
