Perspective taking is a key social skill. We need that in any relationship we have be it with family, kids at school, colleagues at work, or romantic relationships. TATTS targets this directly through the use of aerial imagery from drones. One example of such an effort is when we asked kids to draw 'before' and 'after' pictures of what they thought their surroundings looked like from a bird's perspective. Their new insights are wonderful.
BEFORE - Much of what they draw relates to what is immediately around them.
 |
| Has the basics - people, building, 2 trees |
 |
| Shows our group forming an arrow on the ground to be seen from the sky |
 |
| Has a few buildings |
AFTER - Once they've reviewed the aerial footage, their perspective completely evolves.
 |
| Horizon line, roads, several lakes in the area |
 |
| Full lake represented with a forest of trees around it |
 |
| Full context of the playground, neighborhood, woods and roads |
Imagine how these news perspectives can translate into the rest of their lives be it working in groups at school, participating on a team project at their job or being a loving and supporting partner in a relationship. It is our hope and focus to help these new skills translate into their rest of their lives.
I have visited your site all the sites are really good but if you really interested in technology then visit our site.
ReplyDeleteIt seems like over and over again we're hearing about DJI Repair Service people who are losing control of their Phantoms, but I have never experienced this. DJI makes the best DJI Parts multirotors out there, and if you just get a little bit of training before you fly you'll be fine. I have attended three "Drones 101" classes at UAVDirect in Texas, and I have never GH3 gimbal had so much as a nick on my propellers. They really reinforce pre-flight checks and calibrations before taking off. I can't tell you enough how much drone ground station their classes have made me fly like a badass.
I couldn't agree more that pre/post flight checklists are really important to a safe flight. We try and work with our kids all the time on that aspect of flying.
