The research aims to form a solid base to describe the local identity by answering two questions: ‘What are the main elements building the local identity in the city of Pori?’ and ‘How the visual materials can reveal these elements of identity?’ The research material of

Access to water is a necessity for farmers for them to be able to produce food. This poses a problem in Jordan, one of the world’s driest countries, but also in Sweden, where after a drought in the summer of 2018 the state of the water levels was more critical than ever. Virtual reality (VR) has shown to be a tool with a good effect on students’ learning. In this work VR has been taken advantage o
