Augmented Reality in Education

Fred, a friend of mine shared the following video with me.  It highlights the potential for AR in educational settings.  As Fred said, "This technology is only 2-3 years old. Where will it be in 10 years?!"

What uses for AR do you see in education?

Where's All This Technology Taking Us?

Or more importantly where are we taking this technology? Like a Daft Punk song or the Six Million Dollar Man, the technology is getting better, faster, stronger. But what are we doing with it?  Is the technology driving us, or are we using it to enable better experiences?

A few years ago, I wrote about the end of the monitor and mouse era.  We are now starting to see tablets utilized by entire districts.  I see in the near future a combination of BYOD (bring your own device) and subsidies to make sure every student has district approved and imaged mobile devices.

With any endeavor that utilizes technology, we need to make sure we understand our goals and how tools can help us.

How are you using technology to improve your constituents' experiences?
