Augmented reality - A curatorial tool

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

The flood of information in today's society makes it difficult for undergraduate students to source quality support materials to help in their study, as many are ill-equipped to distinguish the good from the bad. Because of this, the lecturer's role as curator of learning resources has developed and become a vital aspect of their job. It is no longer sufficient simply to provide reading lists. As more and more content of various levels of quality has become available online, some lecturers have taken it upon themselves to create personal websites with module content, a reading or resource list and extra materials to support their students' learning. This paper looks at a simple approach where using AR can successfully bring online and published materials together to create a unique curatorial combination that takes support learning to a new space.
