“This is so much fun, so much better than sitting in a classroom.”

“It is important to use mobiles and games and technologies in education mostly because a lot of people in those year levels have access to that technology and can use it very easily. And they are familiar with that type of stuff so they wouldn’t be sitting there going how do I do this?”

“This technology is still a big part of communication after school…you are still using it all the time and you still have access to it”

“Having a deeper knowledge of the space that you are working in kind of helps because it helps you set guidelines a lot easier, but then again if you are working in a space you’re not familiar with you learn a lot more about it because you actually have to go out and look for that stuff.”

“It’s a good way to interact with things that many people wouldn’t usually. I know a lot of people that wouldn’t even bother looking at the signs on the plants and when you transfer it into this game it makes them look at it, makes it a bit more interesting for them and helps their learning experience.”

“Building the game you have to look for things you want to add into it and you kinda look for stuff, even if you don’t put it in it, it still registers in your head and you remember it…We take in a lot more…this way you are going around, you are experience it.”

“We’re learning in a way that is more suited to our generation…this way we can have fun by going around and looking at the stuff in the real world.”

“Because it is technology we understand we enjoy it a lot more”
