Diversity in learning STEM concepts through Augmented Reality (AR)

In the era of rapid digital advancement, schools today are struggling to maintain the relevance of their classes due to rapid changes in the job market. How can analogue age teaching style prepare kids for the future workforce? The way we teach today is not relevant for tomorrow.

Schools are obliged to innovate to sustain their development by building a strong ICT infrastructure to accommodate 21st-century learning demands for K-12 students focusing on STEM concepts. However, it is not enough to simply add technology to existing teaching methods. Technology must be used strategically to benefit students with quality digital content with strong academic relevance to provide effective learning.

A presentation is based on the feedback from over 753 educators worldwide, about innovative technology in education and outside of the classroom, its influence on the future of the kids with the focus on Augmented Reality (AR). The information on the importance of the use of emerging technologies as one the main steps for education to catch up with industry revolution 4.0. This presentation gives a general overview on how AR can be beneficial for both educators as a tool and kids as an educational aid that involves all the senses: audio, visual and kinetic.

The technology that brings boring schools subjects “to life” through visualising content 3D supports students’ individual learning styles and helps kids to improve test - score by up to 33% and increase information retention rate by up to 100%.

Using Augmented Reality (AR) in K-12 Classroom

In this 45 min AR workshop/presentation, you will learn the why, what, and how behind the integration of AR into your K-12 curriculum. Discover innovative ways to transform your teaching and learn how to take students on augmented reality trips around the world, manipulate 3D objects, augment the world around them, and create AR environments through collaborative activities.
During the presentation, you will experience the capabilities of AR and learn how to prepare and facilitate interactive lessons for your students in the augmented environment to help them develop essential meta-skills.

AR Digital Innovation to Save Education

Covid-19 has pushed schools for remote learning and has created challenges that education was not ready for. How can the education survive? Is there any technology to support parents and teachers?

Collaboration in Augmented Reality

Augmented reality (AR) gained tremendous popularity at K-12 as a great teaching tool to help students engage in an explorative and creative learning environment. Today, the application of AR in Education is extended to creating unique collaborative experiences for students in the multi-player interactions with curriculum-aligned 3D content.
In the augmented collaborative space, students can explore and interact with a variety of STEM-based activities, engage in collaborative and co-creative projects in the AR environment regardless of their geographical location. Students can join a teacher-led activity from any device (web-based or mobile) and any part of the world to experience in-depth visual learning with their peers. Collaboration in AR helps to personalize learning and reinforces critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity skills development, thus, boosting students’ academic performance.
Join in an interactive discussion to learn how to facilitate collaboration activities in AR.
