The INFORM House

eLearning resource

The INFORM House was developed for Historic Scotland to provide an interactive way for home owners to gain the knowledge they need to maintain and repair their property.

Taking content from existing printed Historic Scotland guides, Junction-18 developed an immersive 3D environment, allowing the user to explore the building’s exterior and interior. Through hotspot interaction or topic searching the user can access a series of INFORM guides on topics ranging from monumental bronze through to slate roofing.

The INFORM House installs on a users computer with ease, and features benefits such as automated configuration leveling to maximise the experience on both low and high end machines, and an online update function that will allow additional content to be added via a web connection as future guides are released. The product is available from Historic Scotland on CD-ROM.

Working closely with the directors and marketing team at GHI, we developed a brochure site featuring a wealth of information on GHI and the services they provide. A custom interface was developed to ensure user navigation was quick and simple, coupled with the minimum menu drill-down to access the required information.

Training and support was delivered to GHI to enable them to update site content without the need for specialised technical knowledge, allowing them to easily update the news and case study items.

Gameshows

Junction-18 solved the problem by working with a focus group and found that they loved pub quiz machines and their easy access, quick play gameplay styles. Taking inspiration from popular TV quiz shows, we developed four games featuring the irrepressible Ricky Winchester as a host.

The games are pre-populated with banks of questions for each trade that can be used directly from a website or learning management system. Tutors can also benefit from downloading an editor that lets them create their own questions and drop in rich media assets such as video clips.
