Hello everyone!

Immersion technologies are growing fast, and it is worth discussing the forecasts regarding future trends.

What is the future of immersive technologies in your opinion? Do you use augmented or virtual reality in education? What sort of platform or applications do use in your classes? What is advantages and disadvantages about using immersive technology in education?

Thanks.

How do you organize your eLearning?

Which sources do you use to organize your online training?

The spread of COVID-19 has forced millions of students and teachers to move their communication online. I would like to know how do you solve this problem with your classes?

Hello, everyone.

Augmented Reality (AR) is a technology that overlays interactive digital elements — such as text, images, video clips, sounds, 3D models and animations — into real-world environments. Not only does AR enhance learning, but it also provides students with opportunities to create their own content.

A search of the internet reveals a variety of web-based AR tools and apps for almost any subject. Many of these apps promote 21st century skills such as creativity, problem-solving, critical thinking, analysis, coding and iterative testing.

We created some mobile apps for Android for education.

I would like to know your point of view about AR in education.

As you know, students of most ages and levels enjoy being online. So, with the help of blogging, you can motivate students in your classroom to take an active part in their learning. With this technology tool, students can work online completing writing projects, journaling, collaborating with other students.

You could create one blog for the entire class, or you could have students create their own blog, using online platforms such as Edmodo, WordPress or Weebly, Blogger.

I would be grateful you for sharing your life experience about "Blogs in education".

Mobile apps to turn your smartphone to a science laboratory.

Google's Science Journal app gives you tools to record data about the conditions around you. It can, for instance, harness the sensors in your phone to take light, sound, pressure, and motion readings. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.forscience.whistlepunk Useful for students and teachers in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education and academic or industrial researchers, this app uses device sensor inputs to collect, record, and export data in comma separated value (csv) format through a shareable .csv file. Data can be plotted against elapsed time on a graph or displayed digitally. Users can export the data for further analysis in a spreadsheet or plotting tool. This app also generates tones, colors, and a stroboscope. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chrystianvieyra.physicstoolboxsuite https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.netigen.utils_set

Which apps do you use to turn your smartphone in science laboratory?

What do you think about technology in education and what sort of technology do you use in classes?

Generally I am interested in some mobile applications, computer platforms and distance learning programs, workshops, trainings what really make a learning process more effective for modern students.

Mobile devices such as personal digital assistants, and mobile phones have become a learning tool with great potential in both classrooms and outdoor learning. A new modern instrument like augmented reality creates an education process more informative and iteresting. We create moving 3D objects and it helps to understand difficalt things in the easy way. With respect to the research on the use of mobile technology with AR in education.

We represented our experince there:

Augmented Reality in education

Nowadays 80% of young people have smartphones. Most of them are active smartphone users that use these gadgets to access social platforms, play games and to be in connection with friends and relatives. Much lesser part of young adults uses phones for studying purposes, to do the homework, look for information about a subject, do the experiment etc.

The potential of combining smartphones and Augmented Reality for education is really huge:

AR animated content,

explain abstract and difficult concepts,

AR into lessons teachers are able to involve students into the process with 3-dimensional models.

Nowadays we may find some excellent examples of augmented reality in education worldwide. Ability to connect reality and digital content has been steadily improving, opening more options for teachers and students.

Information from process evaluations is useful for understanding how activities impact and outcome were achieved by students.

We created some mobiles apps with Augmented reality and provided them in education process on Physics lessons. This is a new field for us so I do not know about magazines which include this topic.

Nowadays, we use technologies in modern education. One of these technologies is augmented reality, which allows overlaying layers of virtual information on real scene with the aim of increasing the perception the user has of reality. I have some questions: which mobiles apps do you use on your Physics classes? Which way? Which mobile app would you like to use but still did not find? What do you think about augmented reality in education is it useful? (I am interested in any student's ages).

Thank you in advance.
