Digital technologies are continually transforming the field of education. According to
Gallup survey, 87 percent of American public school teachers use digital tools every week.
Among the most significant trends in EdTech (educational technology), augmented reality
(AR) takes a leading position. Augmented reality is the idea that you're bringing animation
or 3D images into your real world and using your device to see something that isn't actually
there. If you are not familiar with this concept, perhaps the best example is Pokémon Go.
Unlike VR, AR doesn’t require any expensive hardware. Because most people currently
own a smartphone, AR technologies are immediately available for use for the majority of
the target audience. AR can bring a number of benefits in education. It helps the students
grasp abstract concepts through rich visuals and gain hands-on experience in low-risk
virtual settings. For example, students can explore the internal organs of a frog easily
without dissecting frogs in biology class. Or teachers can use AR to create a tornado right
into the classroom so students can experience these destructive storms close up. Besides,
AR can replace textbooks, physical forms, posters, and printed brochures. This helps
reduce the cost of learning materials and makes it easy for everyone to access. Interactive,
gamified AR learning also keeps students engaged throughout the lesson and makes
learning fun and effortless. Moreover, every category of learners, from elementary school
students to long-time professionals, can benefit from AR learning.
