AR technology has been rapidly developing in recent years and we have only begun to explore its potential impact on education. Because it is still in its infancy and continually evolving, it can be a daunting task to find ways in which to implement the technology into a classroom to support and compliment both the learners and the environment where we want learning to take place. As a current elementary teacher, I will be presenting a few different augmented reality applications, providing a brief overview of the application, and looking at ways in which fellow elementary teachers can effectively implement these apps into their classrooms.
Lessons that leap off the page!
