Blending Art, Math, and Science with Augmented Reality
This is fascinating!
Many art programs in our public schools face being cut because of budget shortfalls. Integrating augmented reality as shown in the video I created below not only helps affirm the significance of art programs, but also establishes cross curricular connections amongst multiple content areas.
Please excuse the lighting.

Using math, science, and artistic abilities, students create their own AR files using PC / Mac software that allow users to virtually “walk” around their creation. Projects developed on the PC/ Mac can easily be uploaded to the iPad (wirelessly without using a USB cord). This is not just flashy, innovative technology that has limited novel value; this offers further evidence that learning should not be isolated to single dimensions.
More details to come soon. I have several projects I’m wrapping up, so time has been limited as of late. Meanwhile, feel free to contact me and I hope to help you sooner!
