Great ideas for augmented reality... assuming the desired audience knows how to access the content... in this case with the Aurasma app. A simpler way to do this without having folks download/install Aurasma would be to use QR codes to access related media. Of course, this would require that folks have or download a QR code app.

As teachers and parents, we must never expect that our tools exempt us from raising and teaching our children/students well. Be involved. Be informed.

A nice summary of what connected learning should encompass. If schools would leverage these, they'd have to worry less about seeing social media solely as a friendship/entertainment space
