Afhandlingen undersøger, hvordan teknologistøttet læring og nye måder at præsentere indhold på kan hjælpe lærende med at sætte naturfag i kontekst og forstå det bedre. Den præsenterer et computerbaseret system, der lader lærende bruge kroppen til at interagere med undervisningsindhold. Systemet hedder GILI (Gestural Interactive Learning Interface) og er designet til at opmuntre til virtuel interaktion, der føles praktisk, og til at understøtte erfaringsbaseret læring – at lære ved at gøre.

This thesis explores how technology-enhanced learning and new ways of representing content can help learners place science in context and understand it better. It presents a computer-based system that lets learners use their bodies to interact with educational content. The system, called GILI (Gestural Interactive Learning Interface), is designed to encourage virtual interaction that feels hands-on and supports experiential learning—learning by doing.
