Imagine holding a printed guide or manual, or a digital version (on a mobile
device), and compare this experience with an augmented reality (AR) or mixed
reality (MR) one.
Amidst the current interest and “hype” surrounding AR and MR (in medicalAmidst the current interest and hype surrounding AR and MR (in medical

The document summarizes literature on the pedagogy of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) in medical education. It discusses several learning theories and models that can inform the design of VR and AR experiences, including TPACK, SAMR, and jobs-to-be-done models. Studies have found that VR and AR can increase student engagement and motivation, but more research is needed on their impact on learning outcomes. The document also raises questions about whether engagement necessarily leads to learning and how to balance realism with costs. Several medical schools are piloting the use of VR and AR technologies like HoloLens to teach anatomy.

This document discusses the role of coaching, communication skills, and emotional intelligence (EQ) in healthcare amidst digital and technological disruption. It argues that as artificial intelligence and automation transform healthcare, human intelligence and input that provide coaching, strong communication skills, and high EQ will remain invaluable for adding human value in clinical practice and patient care.

Digital educational resource hyperlinked index vs restaurant menu

Poh-Sun Goh

The document discusses the purpose of hyperlinked indexing of a digital archive to support personalized learning. It proposes using a restaurant menu analogy, with a "set menu" for undergraduates, an "à la carte" or personalized "chef's menu" for postgraduates, and a "buffet" for continuing professional development and lifelong learning. The ideas were co-created during an informal discussion after a workshop at a symposium in October 2013.

This article proposes a new e-portfolio system called PrPl that addresses key problems with current systems. PrPl leverages semantic indexing and cloud computing to allow users to manage their own data across applications in a sustainable way. It uses an "intelligent agent" or "butler" to track, verify, and intelligently present a user's digital artifacts stored across the cloud based on semantics. The authors argue this system could provide a customizable, responsive, and intelligent e-portfolio solution for lifelong learning. However, the article does not fully address issues of privacy, security, and cultural implications of relying on cloud infrastructure.

Augmented Tourism: Definitions and Design Principles

journal ijrtem

After designing and implementing several iterations of implantations of augmented reality(AR) in tourism, this paper takes a deep look into design principles and implementation strategies of using AR at destination tourism settings. The study looks to define augmented tourism from past implementations as well as several cases uses designed and implemented for tourism. The discussion leads to formation of frameworks and best practices for AR as well as virtual reality(VR) to be used in tourism settings. Some main affordances include guest autonomy, customized experiences, visitor data collection and increased electronic word-of-mouth generation for promotion purposes. Some challenges found include the need for high levels of technology infrastructure, low adoption rates or ‘buy-in’ rates, high levels of calibration and customization, and the need for maintenance and support services. Some suggestions are given as to how to leverage the affordances and meet the challenges to implementing AR for tourism

The future of the digital book

Kevin Burden

Conventional accounts of authentic learning focus on contextual factors: tasks, processes, how situated the learning is and the extent to which learners engage in simulated or participative real-world activities. This paper theorises how ubiquitous mobile technologies are fracturing the boundaries that demarcate traditional accounts of authentic learning affording new opportunities to reconceptualise what authenticity means for learners when they use a boundary object such as a mobile device. Whilst some of this has been captured previously with terms like ‘seamless’, ‘contextualised’ and ‘agile’ learning this paper argues that the concept of authentic mobile learning is a highly fluid construct which will continue to change as the technologies develop and as the pedagogical affordances become better understood by educators and end-users. The paper offers a three-dimensional model of authentic mobile learning and argues that further empirical research is required to understand what is authentic mobile learning from the perception of learners.

Power of-visual-communication-hp

jackinthacker

Visual communication can be more powerful than verbal communication alone. Recent research shows that people learn and retain information better when it is presented visually rather than just verbally. Effective visual presentations combine both visual and verbal elements. Key components of visual presentations include visual interpretations of information through charts and graphs, adding visual elements like color and bullets to written content, and including purely visual material like images and videos. Presenters now have many technologies available to help create rich visual presentations.

Augmented Reality & Human Connection - Seminar 2

J C

- The document summarizes a student's research assignment investigating the effects of augmented reality on human interaction and connection. The student conducted a study using Snapchat's AR features comparing a conversation using AR to one in person. - Most participants felt AR was enjoyable but limited true emotion and presence compared to in-person conversations. No one thought AR could replace physical connection. The student concluded AR can both enhance and hinder human connection depending on its use and time spent on technology versus the real world. - For further research, the student proposes investigating more advanced AR forms like Google Glass and VR that may compromise body language and presence less than Snapchat.

Small Steps to Successful Scholarship in Health Professions Education

Poh-Sun Goh

The document discusses taking small, incremental steps to achieve successful scholarship in health professions education. It recommends learning in "small bites" or micro-steps that add up over time with guidance, reflection, and feedback within a community of practice. Technology tools and networks can then support micro-learning, micro-practice, and micro-scholarship. Individual units of micro-learning or micro-practice involve seeing, doing, teaching, and engaging in small acts of scholarship documentation. These small steps, accumulated over time, can make scholarship accessible and available to all.

This document proposes a new model of lifelong learning called See-Do-Share that combines adaptive expertise with open digital practice and engagement in scholarship. The model involves seeing or catching attention to a topic, doing by exploring and practicing it while taking notes, and then sharing one's demonstrated knowledge, skills, and attitudes on the topic by sharing notes within communities of practice. It is an iterative and cumulative model where learning occurs through reflective practice, feedback, mentoring, and coaching in just-in-time, bite-sized, or modular lessons that build up over time to deeper mastery through training and deliberate practice.
