Why Should Students Use AR? How Is It Different from Traditional Educational Methods?

Image
Imagine if you could teach students about active volcanos in the world by actually showing them one in the classroom. Sounds crazy, like something out of a sci-fi movie. Thanks to Augmented Reality (AR), this is feasible. In today's world, educators need to embrace new and different teaching methods such as adopting leading-edge technologies like AR that offer an immersive learning experience. Spending on Augmented reality is on the up, and a study predicts the global market of AR in education to reach $41.8 billion by 2027, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 77.2% over the period of 2020-2027. Read on to learn more about the benefits of using AR for students and the advantages it offers over conventional education methods.

In a constantly evolving world, education should be continually advancing. As the new-gen kids are born and raised in a technologically advanced digital age, they will prefer innovative technologies like virtual reality (VR) in teaching over traditional educational methods.VR teaching adds a new dimension to the teaching process and enables educators to improve the learning experience. Virtual reality technology is on the rise and offers several advantages in many sectors, including education. Educators have started to realize the potential of VR and are adopting VR in their schools. In fact, global spending for virtual reality in the education market is projected to reach $13,098 million by 2026 from $657 million in 2018, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 42.9%. In this blog, we will explore the advantages of utilizing virtual reality technology in the teaching process. How Can VR Help Improve the Teaching Process? In the digital age, information is more accessible t

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way the world works, and it is no different in the education industry. The pandemic has pushed more people towards remote learning, and even after the threat of COVID-19 passes, it is highly likely more institutions will migrate to online learning methods. In fact, a study  forecasts the global eLearning market to grow from $101 billion in 2019 to $370 billion by 2026. A virtual reality (VR) learning environment can significantly improve the remote learning experience by offering immersive simulations and interactive 3D elements. In this piece, we will explore how VR learning helps to enhance remote learning and overcome the shortcomings of online education. How VR Can Enhance Online Learning Enhance Online Training One of the major downsides of online education is the lack of practical elements. Incorporating VR learning in online education promotes hands-on, practical learning. Utilizing VR headsets for learning immerses the user and eliminates d
