Augmented reality snags a coveted spot in classrooms

 Augmented reality is additional information to any source being studied or observed. In the classroom, augmented reality is becoming a whole new way of educating students- by letting them educate themselves! This is hands on discovery for the students, and teachers can "road-map" their classroom to fit the topic needs. This is nothing like research or reading a textbook. There's a new way of learning and this blending technology with the real world is perfect for the technologically-driven age we are now facing.

 This is genius! Any level of engaging the students is always a positive to learning, but with this, students are almost teaching themselves. Naturally, when students "discover" anything on their own, hands-on, it is better remembered. I'm curious to research more results of this being implemented in the classroom!
