Students as Partners: Developing Augmented Reality in the classroom
Debbie Holley, Mike Hobbs and Chloe Menown
Workshop Materials for Anglia L& T Conference
Anglia Ruskin UniversityOur project website‘augmented@ARU’
Workshop:
• Context for use of visualisation for co-creating artefacts
• Familiarisation with Augmented Reality
• Try out some ‘triggers’
• Make your own!
Our Project
To engage ARU staff and
students in broadest
context with innovative technology
To offer ARU students extra-
curricula opportunities to enhance their CV
Part of a University LTP project:

To explore the affordances of
Augmented Reality for
inside/outside the classroom
Getting started with Aurasma
Aurasma is a free App the enables you to follow existing ‘channel’ and view premade resources
We will now set up the App on the devices, and start to work towards creating our posters
Sequence:
In small groups, download app, then we will explore some existing examples to get ideas
We will make an aurasma aura using the built in animation
Case Study 1
Engaging students with technology for language development
One day workshop for 55 teachers of English from Panama
Case study 2Enhancing a PDP module
• We are using AR to offer an innovative, real world and problem based set of activities for a group of first year University Gaming and Computer Science students.
• Our initial research identifies a gap in the perceptions of STEM students between the usefulness of discipline based modules and a compulsory 'Professional Development' module where more ‘employability’ based skills were delivered.
• It had a history of poor student engagement and attendance, and failed to provide a compelling narrative/links to the outside world.
• The AR tasks were designed to facilitate group-working and multi-channel communication, and to engage students through the use of a more creative technology. Initial findings indicate higher levels of satisfaction, enhanced student engagement and a greater awareness of the value of transferable skills.
Outcomes:Non submission – 34% to 22%
And this year one more student submitted their PDP than submitted to the main assessment!

This is a book taken from the library that is part of the reading for their course.
