The Brunei Shipwreck app for iPhone and iPad

The Brunei Shipwreck app was developed for Form 1 - 3 secondary school students in Brunei. The story begins with the accidental discovery of a 15th century shipwreck off the coast of Brunei. Through the personal narrative of Jacques Noureddine, a professional deep-sea diver, the reader is led on a journey of discovery from the excavation site on the floor of the South China Sea to the archaeology laboratory of the Brunei Museum in Kota Batu.

The Brunei Shipwreck is illustrated with colour photographs from the actual excavation site and by graphics which are designed to expand the reader’s understanding and appreciation of the story. The Exploration Page at the end of each chapter provides the opportunity for readers to test their comprehension and encourages them to explore topics of personal interest related to history, geography, science, art and career themes.
