Overview...
Ancient Theater of Philippi is a cross-disciplinary project that brings science/engineering together with humanities (Digital Humanities). Using this gamified tool, students can virtually tour in the Ancient Theater of Philippi which is located near the city of Kavala, in Greece. The 3D model of the theater is created via photogrammetry using thousands of photos (close-up/drone takes). Students can also watch chunks of video lectures and respond to questions based on educational material. Assessment is an automated process (auto-fed Google Form) and tutors can be notified immediately after the score submission.
