Imagine giving a presentation and the participant handouts suddenly become alive and interactive. It’s not science fiction it’s AR (augmented reality). Augmented reality involves adding virtual aspects to the real world. It is an enhancement of reality through technologies using smart phones, tablets, apps and wearables. Educators know that meaningful learning occurs when participants are able to create, share, interact and explain.

Augmented learning offers a great value in adapting environments to the learner. There are endless possibilities for using AR. Participants will learn by experiencing:

  • How AR can provide real-world context to learning
  • How AR is being used in educational settings
  • Advantages and disadvantages of using AR
  • How to bring your own learning solutions to life with AR apps
  • Research on effectiveness of AR in Education
  • Tips to evaluate AR learning solutions
As a result, participants will be leave the session with the knowledge needed to get started creating their own AR solutions for educational purposes.
