Augmented Reality in Education

Karen Hamilton & Jorge Olenewa May 2010

Augmented Reality in Education
The 2010 Horizon Report, a joint report by The New Media Consortium and Educause, predicts that the use of simple augmented reality in education will be widespread within two to three years

Augmented Reality as a Continuum Real-----------Mixed Reality-------Virtual Reality  Augmented  Paul Milgram and Fumio Kishino (1994)

Augmented Reality: Real versus Virtual Reality Virtual Reality: Second Life Virtual Reality ( VR ) environment is a computer simulated environment that may simulate the real world or an imaginary world.

Very Simple Augmented Reality Simple Augmented Reality : First down line on football broadcast

Gestured Based Computing
Gesture recognition enables humans to interact with mechanical devices using simple natural gestures.

Geotagging and Geolocation
A Geotag is a GPS coordinate that associates content such as videos, textual information, audio or any user- generated content to a specific location.
AR applications draw on specific tags created by companies but will also depend on content that everyday users add through Geotagging.
Augmented Reality: Terms & Definitions

Marker vs Markerless Augmented Reality
Augmented Reality: Terms & Definitions Markers: QR Code= Quick Response Code Marker: Semacode Markers trigger text, sound, or visuals

Marker vs Markerless Augmented Reality
AR Browsers: Layar and Wikitude
Augmented Reality: Terms & Definitions Trigger of text, sound, or visuals is from GPS and Compass data

A smart phone's camera, compass and GPS information is needed to operate an AR Browser
The browser first locates the user with GPS and compass of phone
Next, it retrieves information from online sources based on those geographical coordinates
The information and graphics are then overlaid onto the camera view of the smart phone’s screen.
In effect, the AR Browsers label the real world
Augmented Reality: Browsers

Provides rich contextual learning for individuals learning a skill.
Appeals to constructivist notions of education where students take control of their own learning
Provides opportunities for more authentic learning and appeals to multiple learning styles.
Has the power to engage a learner in ways that have never been possible
Can provide each student with his/her own unique discovery path.
No real consequences if mistakes are made during skills training

QR Codes
To start creating a very basic application of simple augmentation, first download a QR Code Reader for your smart phone. Try NeoReader http://www.neoreader.com/download.html
For Blackberry try BeeTag http://www.beetagg.com/downloadreader
Access the QR application and point your smartphone camera at any code to receive whatever information is triggered.

QR Code Creation:
To create a simple QR Code go to Kaywa Reader http://qrcode.kaywa.com/
Choose between URL, Text, Phone Number, SMS
Click Generate and you have your QR Code
Take out your smart phone, access code reader to test
