Interactive
learning materials on PDAs and mobile phones, easily created by your staff.
i-Guide from StreetAccess provides web-based services for schools and colleges, and for museums, galleries and other public spaces. i-Guide gives any school, museum or gallery the capability to create their own bespoke, interactive, online learning materials and guides.
These Trails’ can be viewed on any internet-capable device, including PDAs and mobile phones as well as desktop or laptop computers. Every individual visit or lesson is captured as it happens and can be revisited later. The results can be downloaded to paste into coursework, or simply to keep as a memento.
How i-Guide Works
At
the heart of i-Guide is the easy-to-use
Trailmaker application that allows teachers or gallery staff to write interactive
Trails that can be accessed on
PDAs, mobile phones or personal computers. The Trailmaker is web-based,
so trails can be created or edited wherever you are
and the results easily previewed for assessment before they go live.
Trails can then be automatically uploaded to the StreetAccess
website, and later removed if so desired.
Access to Trails is controlled by their creator - they can be open to anyone, or restricted to users from a particular group, such as an individual school or LEA. The flexibility and ease of use of the Trailmaker means that teachers and gallery staff are entirely in control of the process and can modify trails or upgrade them whenever they wish. Users are given individual IDs, and these can be added or removed at will.
Using i-Guide
StreetAccess
provides internet availability for every Trail
that the gallery or school uploads. It makes every live Trail available via
the web for viewing on PDAs, mobile phones or any internet-linked
computer. The i-Guide service stores
a record of every User and of each Trail taken by a user. Each user can
preview the Trails before taking them, and
having taken a Trail can then revisit their own individual journey
by calling it up from the StreetAccess website. The recorded Trails can be downloaded
and kept for further use, or edited into other material. The StreetAccess website is fully
backed up in real-time.

Access and Registration
Anyone
can access our publicly available trails: just use the link above, or
click on Take a Trail and then Preview a Trail. If you wish to use the service
other than in preview mode, however, so that work can be saved and reviewed
later, youll need to register. If you wish to create your own trails,
either for your own organisation's private use or for general public use, you’ll
need to purchase a licence to use the Trailmaker software.
