Aurelia | Verizon Innovative Learning

Access codes can be found on the Verizon Innovative Learning website. The teacher will find their access code under the Aurelia app and will find a code to give their class to log into the app. In the Aurelia Teacher app, the teacher can find a link to register for the platform if they are not already.

A student will first need a Verizon Innovative Learning access code from their teacher to access the Aurelia app. Once the teacher has created a session and selected which ecosystem they want to explore, the student will enter that code into the student portion of the Aurelia app. When the student successfully joins the session, the teacher will notice the student counter increase based on the number of students who have joined the session. The teacher can then push the students into the next segment so they can start exploring the ecosystem and creating their fish.

Yes, you will need at least two iPhones to successfully run through the full experience. One device will be logged in as the teacher and at least one other device which will be logged in as the student.

In the latest version of the Aurelia app, the device will automatically detect the lowest available ground plane and place the AR scene for you. It will stay anchored to this position unless a lower ground plane is detected. 

After the student creates their fish and they are in the environment, they can tap the screen to move their fish. An indicator on screen will show the fish's target location. The fish will have to find a valid path to this location, so it may not turn directly to the location chosen by the user.

After the session ends, an email containing a CSV file with the students' entered names and the grades given to their fish will be sent to the address used when logging into the Aurelia Teacher app.

The goal for the student is to create a fish that will be adaptable to the chosen environment.  After creation, if the fish is not suitable for the environment the app will give hints on what the student should change to improve their grade but it does not block you from proceeding if you choose to.
