Wayfinding has existed since man identified a need to find his bearings as he travelled for food, shelter or safety. In architecture, Wayfinding also refers to the user experience of orientation and choosing a path within the built environment, and to the set of architectural and/or design elements that aid orientation.
However, “digital waylearning” is the evolution of wayfinding, fuelled by the advent of digital technology and the heightened need for rapid and personalized information in a world of terrorist threats, H1N1 fears and Amber Alert messages. Due to the flexibility of digital wayfinding and its relatively new state in the build environments, it is easy for a first-time user to get overwhelmed by the ins and outs of implementing a Digital Wayfinding Program.

We will cover the following topics:
1. What is Digital Waylearning?
