Augmented Reality in Education: Enhancing Learning Experiences
Abstract
Augmented Reality (AR) is reshaping the landscape of education by offering immersive and interactive learning experiences. This paper explores the significance of AR in education, emphasizing its role in classroom instruction, training simulations, and educational games. It delves into various aspects, including AR applications, markerless tracking, and user engagement. The discussion includes the benefits of AR in education, such as improved comprehension, engagement, and retention of knowledge. Moreover, the paper addresses the challenges and considerations in integrating AR into educational settings, including technical infrastructure and content development. Through a review of AR-based educational initiatives, the study highlights the positive outcomes associated with leveraging AR for enhanced learning.
