Blog 2: Augment Reality and Education

Another blog post response to Neil’s recent blog post, which can originally be seen above.

Hello Neil, thanks again for sharing your thoughts and ideas for this weeks forum post. I liked the design of your poster, which I felt covered both the AR/VR topic of this week’s topic, as well as including appealing design principles. The text was clear and visuals easily spaced or organized throughout the poster. Mixed reality is an interesting topic as it combines aspects of both AR and VR, making it a learning technology that potentially has the benefits of both technologies (though I suppose that a device such as the Hololens 2 would be capable of supporting both AR and VR too). Alternating between AR, VR, and Mixed views are likely for headset or app technologies in the future. With the advent of newer technologies and efficiency, perhaps all three technologies would be common in educational settings. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts!
