Webinar: Augmented reality in STEAM education

Science on Stage Serbia and the Institute for Contemporary Education organized a webinar called "Augmented reality in STEAM education", which was held on January 26, 2023, and was intended for teachers who want to use augmented reality (AR) in their classrooms.

In this lecture, the emphasis was placed on the distinctive characteristics of AR compared to other representatives of immersive technologies, such as VR, MR and XR, and concrete examples were given.

The lecturer presented the simplicity and accessibility of applying augmented reality in teaching in order to encourage as many teachers as possible to improve their teaching practice with modern trends that have multiple purposes. A separate segment of the lecture consists of concrete proposals for AR books, mobile apps, quizzes, and teaching aids based on augmented reality, completely free or low-budget, which can provide students with the visualization of abstract content, expand the basic content with a digital display with transformation, or even create new environments enriched with virtual objects. You will also learn how to create your own materials enriched with AR elements using the platforms "Unite AR" and "Assemblr" and guidelines for further improvement.
