Tenth grader utilizes Mapper’s Delight learning app to combine his love of music with STEM.
Fabian Tercero, a tenth grade student at SLAM Miami, dreams big: He hopes to pursue his love of music and become a professional rapper one day. With the help of the Verizon Innovative Learning Lab at his school, he’s inching his aspirations closer to reality by recording and publishing his own music using next-gen tech and a high-speed 5G connection.
Fabian credits the Verizon Innovative Learning HQ app, Mapper’s Delight, with diversifying his musical palate and educating him about various genres of music. The augmented reality (AR) app opens with a 3D view of the world. Fabian then chooses where he wants to virtually travel, and wherever he lands, he learns about famous musicians from that area. As Fabian explains, it combines geography with music, engaging students in a way never before experienced. Mapper’s Delight is free and available to any educator through Verizon Innovative Learning HQ.
