DWELL, or Digital Writing Environments, Location, &amp; Localization Lab, is directed by URI\u2019s Dr. Madison Jones and supported by graduate students and other collaborators. The North Woods Project will ultimately be an open-access digital resource that combines augmented reality (AR), web development, and digital mapping to lay the groundwork for an ongoing research and teaching project that celebrates the North Woods through social, ecological, and creative perspectives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This project hopes to sustain engagement in local communities both within and outside of URI and provide the university community and local residents with a walking tour experience that showcases the important roles that the North Woods play in the community as well as the social and ecological history of the place. The project will also offer important field-based learning experiences for graduate students and document ongoing research in the North Woods by students and faculty at URI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>You can read more about DWELL\u2019s work with this project on their <a href=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/dwell\/\">website<\/a> or follow them on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/dwell_lab\">Twitter<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/dwelluri\">Facebook<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/dwell_lab\/\">Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interested in getting involved with DWELL Lab and\/or the North Woods Project?
