DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Augmented Reality (AR) has many advantages that include increased engagement and interaction as well as enhanced innovation and responsiveness. AR technology has applications in almost all domains such as medical training, retail, repair and maintenance of complex equipment, interior design in architecture and construction, business logistics, tourism, and classroom education. Innovating with Augmented Reality: Applications in Education and Industry explains the concepts behind AR, explores some of its application areas, and gives an in-depth look at how this technology aligns with Education 4.0. Due to the rapid advancements in technology, future education systems must prepare students to work with the latest technologies by enabling them to learn virtually in augmented ways in varied platforms. By providing an illusion of physical objects, which takes the students to a new world of imagination, AR and Virtual Reality (VR) create virtual and interactive environments for better learning and understanding. AR applications in education are covered in four chapters of this book, including a chapter on how gamification can be made use of in the teaching and learning process. The book also covers other application areas of AR and VR. One such application area is the food and beverage industry with case studies on virtual 3D food, employee training, product–customer interaction, restaurant entertainment, restaurant tours, and product packaging. The application of AR in the healthcare sector, medical education, and related devices and software are examined in the book’s final chapter. The book also provides an overview of the game development software, Unity, a real-time development platform for 2D and 3D AR and VR, as well as the software tools and techniques used in developing AR-based apps.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →In the field of education, the quick progression of technologies poses both unprecedented challenges and unparalleled opportunities. As our classrooms undergo a large shift, traditional practices are being questioned, demanding a reevaluation of how we teach, learn, and prepare the leaders of tomorrow. The consensus is clear: for our students to thrive in an increasingly tech-driven world, they must not only understand but also master technology to ensure future economic success. However, the integration of these technologies into education brings forth a myriad of complexities, necessitating a thoughtful exploration of their impact and potential solutions. The swift development of transformational technologies is reshaping education, presenting educators, administrators, and policymakers with a daunting challenge. Augmented Reality and the Future of Education Technology offers pivotal solutions to the challenges presented by transformative technologies in education. Traditional teaching methods are being scrutinized, and the need for a cohesive understanding of these technologies is becoming imperative. The growing gap between the demands of the digital age and the current state of education highlights the urgency to address issues such as teacher readiness, student engagement, and the overall organizational culture's ability to adapt to this technological paradigm shift. The question remains: How can education effectively harness these technologies to create learner-centric, personalized, and engaging learning experiences?

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) provide flexibility in education and have become widely used for the promotion of multimedia learning. This use coincides with mobile devices becoming prevalent, VR devices becoming more affordable, and the creation of user-friendly software that allows the development of AR/VR applications by non-experts. However, because the integration of AR and VR into education is a fairly new practice that is only in its initial stage, these processes and outcomes need to be improved. Designing, Deploying, and Evaluating Virtual and Augmented Reality in Education is an essential research book that presents current practices and procedures from different technology-implementation stages (design, deployment, and evaluation) to help educators use AR/VR applications in their own teaching practices. The book provides comprehensive information on AR and VR applications in different educational settings from various perspectives including but not limited to mobile learning, formal/informal learning, and integration strategies with practical and/or theoretical implications. Barriers and challenges to their implementation that are currently faced by educators are also addressed. This book is ideal for academicians, instructors, curriculum designers, policymakers, instructional designers, researchers, education professionals, practitioners, and students.
