What it is
We trained children to sit still and tap glass. Draw in the Air turns the screen around: the camera follows a child's hand, and the movement is the lesson.
It runs in the browser with nothing to install, follows the Early Years Foundation Stage, and has a Class Mode and a teacher dashboard so a teacher can run it with a whole class.
It is approved on the Chrome Web Store and running in a UK primary school pilot. A television version, built on a Raspberry Pi compute module, has reached design freeze.
