- learners will be able to identify different types of AR technology and explain their uses.
- learners will be able to explore real-world applications of AR.
- learners will be able to discuss the implications of AR in the world today and its potential applications in the future.
Possible Materials Needed
- Textbook or educational handouts on Augmented Reality
- Examples of AR applications (Google Glass, Pokemon Go, etc.)
- AR Vocabulary Sheet
- Augmented Reality Powerpoint Presentation
- Short video on Augmented Reality
Anticipatory Set
Begin the lesson by engaging the class in a discussion on what they know about Augmented Reality (AR). Ask the class to consider how they use technology in their everyday lives and how AR might be used to enhance their experience. Introduce the concept of AR and explain how it works. Explain how AR can be used to overlay virtual objects on a real-world environment. Ask the class to consider how AR might be used to provide users with a more immersive experience. Ask the class to consider the potential implications of AR and how it might be used in different areas, such as education and healthcare. Discuss the potential benefits and drawbacks of using AR technology. Finally, introduce the different types of AR technology, such as Google Glass and Pokemon Go. Ask the class to consider how these technologies might be used in the real world and the potential implications of their use.
Modeled Practice
The teacher can provide an example of an AR application, such as Google Glass,and explain how it works. Ask the class to consider how this type of technology might be used in the real world and how it might be beneficial.
The teacher can provide a hands-on activity to help the learners explore different types of AR applications. Ask the class to research an AR application, such as Pokemon Go, and explain how it works and how it might be used in the real world. The teacher can then ask the class to brainstorm other potential applications of AR.
The teacher can provide a discussion-based activity to help the learners understand the implications of AR technology and how it might be used in the future. Ask the class to consider how AR might be used in different areas, such as healthcare, education, and entertainment. Ask the class to discuss the potential benefits and drawbacks of using AR technology.
Guided Practice
Divide the class into small groups and assign each group a potential application of AR technology. Ask each group to research the application and create a presentation that explains how AR technology might be used in the real world. Ask the learners to explore both the potential benefits and drawbacks of using the technology.
Divide the class into small groups and ask each group to brainstorm a potential application of AR technology. Ask the learners to consider how AR might be used in the real world and the implications of its use. Ask the learners to create a prototype of the application using AR technology.
Provide learners with a worksheet that asks them to consider the implications of AR technology in the real world. Ask them to research potential applications of AR technology and discuss the potential benefits and drawbacks of using it. Ask them to consider how AR might be used in different areas, such as healthcare, education, and entertainment.
Independent Practice
Ask learners to research a particular type of AR technology, such as Google Glass, and create a poster that includes information about the technology and its potential applications in the real world.
Ask learners to write a story about how a particular application of AR technology might be used in the real world and the implications of its use. Ask learners to create a PowerPoint presentation that explains how AR technology might be used in the real world and the potential implications of its use. The presentation should include information on the potential applications of AR technology in different areas, such as healthcare, education, and entertainment.
Common Areas of Struggle
When it comes to learning about Augmented Reality (AR), the most common struggle is understanding the concept of AR and how it works. learners may also have difficulty under.standing the different types of AR technology and their potential applications in the real world.
Another area where learners struggle to comprehend is understanding the implications of AR technology and how it might be used in the future. Ensure that learners are given plenty of opportunity to explore different types of AR technology and discuss the potential implications of their use. Provide plenty of examples and visuals to help learners better understand the concept. Encourage learners to ask questions and engage in discussions about the potential applications of AR technology.
Closure
At the end of the lesson, the teacher can ask the class to complete a writing prompt that asks them to consider how AR technology might be used in the real world and the implications of its use. Ask the learners to consider how AR might be used in different areas and the potential benefits and drawbacks of using it. The teacher can also assign a quiz to assess the learners’ understanding of the concepts discussed in the lesson. It is important to provide learners with feedback on their work so that they can understand what areas they need to focus on and improve. Be sure to ask questions often related to the common areas of struggle.
