Augmented Reality is a technology that allows to show digital information on top of the real world image shown through any smartphone’s camera.
How to use Augmented Reality (AR) in the classroom
1- Choose a topic to work on
Something close to your students that can be gelocalized (e.g. railway stations)
2- Organize a visit
Take your students to different locations and make them produce digital contents (e.g. pictures, videos, sound files)
3- Research
Make your students research on particular spots so they can complement the information they have generated
4- Create AR content
Make your students use an AR Content Mangement System (e.g. Hoppala) to associate the information to its geolocalization
5- Publish your AR content
Publish the AR content through an AR browser (e.g. Layar)
