AUGMENTED REALITY IN EDUCATION HOW TO APPLY IT TO YOUR EDUTECH

Pre-Registration Link –>

Traditional methods of education as we know it are becoming a thing of the past. They are becoming increasingly digitized, and being driven by technology innovations. Among the most significant trends in EdTech, augmented reality rightfully takes a leading position

Using augmented reality in education and training: The opportunities and challenges

Augmented reality in education can serve a number of purposes. It helps the students easily acquire, process, and remember the information. Additionally, AR makes learning itself more engaging and fun.

It is also not limited to a single age group or level of education, and can be used equally well in all levels of schooling; from pre-school education up to college, or even at work.

How AR in education works

AR is part of a larger Extended Reality (XR) concept, which also includes VR and MR technologies. Augmented reality enhances the real-world environment with text, sound effects, graphics, and multimedia. In other words, AR brings us an enriched version of our immediate surroundings by layering digital content on top of the graphic representation of the real world.

3D printing in education for inspirational learning

 More and more, 3D printing is being used in education as a tool to teach people at all levels of learning. Teachers use 3D objects to help primary school kids grasp concepts, refine students’ creative skills in high school and help them learn technical subjects at university. At that stage they’re often using them for prototyping projects

What is 3D printing?   

3D printing, or additive manufacturing, is a production technique that creates a three-dimensional object from a computer-aided design (CAD) file. The term covers several different processes that see one or more materials – typically plastic, metal, wax or composite – being deposited layer by layer to build a shape.

How is 3D printing transforming education?

The are many advantages of 3D printing in education, including: 

Helping to keep students engaged

Simplifying complicated subjects and concepts

Bringing theoretical ideas to life

Encouraging collaboration

Introducing students to modern manufacturing processes

Preparing students for the future workplace and careers

Producing affordable and fully customizable teaching aids
