"We recently completed a biography unit for which my students researched famous Americans and wrote five paragraph biographical essays. They attached a photo to their essays to serve as the trigger for their auras. The overlay was a video they recorded speaking in the first person about their famous American. Click the video below to see an aura of Barack Obama."

"With augmented reality, magazine content comes to life! With fun ways to explore math, science, language, geography, history, music and art beyond the curriculum, we engage kids through what they love - their mobile devices. They get interactive video by hovering their phone/tablet over the print page of the magazine. Brainspace magazine offers kids the benefits of reading great content PLUS the engagement of video. This is cool learning."

"If you're a regular reader of ClassTechTips.com you know how much I love scannable technology!  I've had the opportunity this past year to work with LitWorld as they've developed iPad literacy programing for children and families.  One super fun set of posters we're using this fall let's students scan a poster to access a video of a read aloud."

"Technology has not always been my strong point. In fact, for six years I was so terrified of it that when given a SMART board for my classroom I politely turned it away. Technology cannot be forced upon teachers. They have to have their A-HA moment. Mine was spring of 2013. I begrudgingly checked my Twitter account one night (did not like Twitter) and ran across a teacher named Erin Klein. She was doing something called Augmented Reality with her 2nd graders, and I was amazed. I started looking at all of the other engaging activities that teachers were doing with students via technology, and I knew that I needed to get my tail in gear. My students deserved the same type of education. The type of education that fosters life long learners. The type of education that provokes children to question and really use those deep critical thinking skills. So late that night I taught myself how to make images come to life in my classroom using Aurasma. Aurasma is an app that creates Augmented Reality. It absolutely changed my classroom. Flipped it upside down."
