Easily simulate your 3D projects in Augmented Reality. Impress your teachers and get a top grade. Express your creativity and get rid of prototyping cost and time barriers.
I have only started to explore the world of AR, but am excited for its use in education. I create a group of auras for a display board on digital citizenship this past autumn and am looking to use it here soon at a Leadership Workshop with other teachers.
Right now, I can only think of use by teachers and that's because I haven't thought of ways to include students yet. looking for ideas though.
Augmented reality apps and websites can easily be found: PopAR, colAR, Chromville, Elements4D, AR Flashcards, Layar, and Codigo Code just to name a few.
Rob, I've intrigued by augmented reality since I first learned about it at an EdCamp last winter. Since then I've played around with AR flashcards, Chromville and Aurasma. I can see this application used both by teachers and students. It is my hope to generate some Aurasma's next year that students can demonstrate to the public. This will work to connect student learning to the public and showcase our 1:1 ipad initiative! @travislappe is someone you should follow on Twitter - he's a tech integrationist in South Dakota that has been very active with augmented reality.
I have been intrigued by augmented reality since beginning the VREP program at my school. This resource looks like a user friendly way to introduce the concept of AR into the classroom. I have actually used Poly Fauna for a collaborative project with West Central's chorus. It was a great way to tell a story and adapt a virtual storyboard to music. It definitely expanded the lesson plans I had previously implemented with our peer groups.
Students are able to create stories or reports using Nanoogo. They can put in a picture of a famous person from our past, such as Martin Luther King, and then create a project about him using Nanoogo.
This website allows you to make a "word cloud" of important words to make things such as thank yous, a way to intro a topic, a way to introduce a new book, and more.
