    #ARVRinEDU STEP 1: Position, Scale, Color --- In your project, find the shape elements on lines 11-14 and start changing some of the values for the position, scale, + color and see what happens. Make sure to keep the values inside quotation marks. See instructions below the code

    I’m integrating some #CS projects with SS. Definitely a skill builder for HTML, 3D design skills, and more! #ARVRinEdu

    WebXR has endless possibilities for design. Here’s an interactive project in the making of Ultima Thule. #ARVRinEDU

    Does @frame_vr provide any lessons for teachers to integrate into daily instruction? #ARVRinEdu
  • gabrieljbaker Jan 30 @ 9:21 PM EST
    Absolutely. This tweetchat here is kind of a condensed version of much more fleshed out, scaffolded free online projects I have up at a site called Frame Academy: https://t.co/eb4IWcwG6z #ARVRinEDU

    #ARVRinEDU STEP 2: Let's add shapes. To do this, we use HTML elements. They need an opening tag like and a closing tag like . Closing tag has a slash. See Step 2 notes for a list of shapes! Put attributes like position inside opening tag, as w/ the other shapes.

    This is definitely a plus when integrating content across the curriculum. Thanks. #ARVRinEDU

    This workshop is perfect timing I'm writing in the middle of building a new class that I can use some of this with! Thank you. #ARVRinEDU

  • DenisecWright Jan 30 @ 9:29 PM EST
    #arvrinedu @gabrieljbaker very easy to manipulate the HTML coding, the photospheres have to be added in the assets box ? Can you try other coding languages in this editor ? thanks or is strictly for hyper text markup language ? Thanks.
  • DenisecWright Jan 30 @ 9:31 PM EST
    #arvrinedu @gabrieljbaker so do the photospheres have to be added to the assets to add them ? It his editor strictly for HTML or other coding languages as well ? Thanks
  • gabrieljbaker Jan 30 @ 9:32 PM EST
    #ARVRinEDU STEP 3: Time for photospheres! Add an element inside your element (where your shapes are), and then give a src attribute. Look in the Step 3 notes to find sample photospheres to play with. Copy+paste one of their URLS for the src. :)
  • gabrieljbaker Jan 30 @ 9:42 PM EST
    #ARVRinEDU STEP 4: Time for 3D models. :) Use the element and just like with photospheres, give it a src attribute and use the link for one of the example models provided on the sample asset page. Play around with a few, and adjust scale + position as needed. #glTF
  • magistrazee Jan 30 @ 9:44 PM EST
    Having fun with #ARVRinEDU tonight thanks to @gabrieljbaker Here's what I have so far...slow and steady..getting there!
  • gabrieljbaker Jan 30 @ 9:45 PM EST
    #glTF is a 3D model format that is gaining broad adoption from both large companies and indie designers. It's specifically designed to be good for "run-time" environments like the web, with fast loading and rendering. Any @Sketchfab model can be downloaded as glTF! #ARVRinEDU

  • gabrieljbaker Jan 30 @ 9:49 PM EST
    I've tried to code on mobile before, and it's tough, to say the least haha! Miraculously enough Glitch works on mobile, but with so little real estate it's a real challenge. @DavidJLockett seems to do well with iPads #arvrinedu

    Check out this innovative way to use Twitter for Online Learning. Really great use of a twitter chat. @gabrieljbaker I can't wait to make my own workshop with this method. @JeredBorup #ARVRinEDU

    Loved the #ARVRinEDU Workshop. @gabrieljbaker you are a rock star. This was a fun no stress way to learn and I'm looking forward to really unpacking it when I have more time.
  • gabrieljbaker Jan 30 @ 9:52 PM EST
    #ARVRinEDU Step 5: There's an easy way to find the right position, rotation, + scale value for elements. Open your site + press control-shift-i to pull up the A-Frame inspector to visually set up a scene! Bonus, see my element + make a new one! https://t.co/skCQfipVYN
  • StacyTippens Jan 30 @ 9:55 PM EST
    This is a game changer for me. Makes it so easy to manipulate the objects. #ARVRinEDU

  • gabrieljbaker Jan 30 @ 9:56 PM EST
    Phew. Alright #ARVRinEDU folks, I know this was a whirlwind tour, and I apologize for trying to cram so much into just an hour. Open to any thoughts, questions, bugs you ran into about WebXR. I think it's a really powerful vehicle for learning coding + design - creation!

    A3. Just participated in #ARVRinEDU and learned a new skill i'm going to bring to the classroom. A great example of how making new connections can help you grow as a teacher. #edumagic #ISTETEN
