In 2014 and 2015, Mediated Spaces worked on http://OpenPath.me, developing a back-end WebRTC infrastructure for place-based learning. With supporting funds from National Writing Project's Educator Innovator program, OpenPath worked with students on the implementation, focusing on learner experience. This work was presented at the MacArthur Foundation Digital Media and Learning conference in Los Angeles. (http://dml2015.dmlhub.net/event/12662-panel-ol-place-shifting-learning/)In 2013, Mediated Spaces won three rounds of funding in the Mozilla/Ignite competition to develop OpenPath.me. It is a tool that uses the latest browser technologies and high-speed networks to connect learning across schools, museums, parks, nature centers, makerspaces, and more. See http://OpenPath.me. Jared Lamenzo is the principal of the firm and has managed and consulted on the envisioning, development, and implementation of technology for learning. A winner of the MacArthur Digital Media and Learning Competition, he has spoken widely on mobiles in science education: MacArthur Digital Media and Learning Conference in San Diego, Eyebeam Digital Teacher Core, Mobilityshifts, Digital Technology Lab at Eyebeam, and many others. At South by Southwest, he led a standing-room-only panel entitled “No Child Left Inside: Mobile Tech Meets Education,” with Dr. Craig Watkins (“The Young and the Digital”) and other co-panelists.
