Paper Abstract:
|
Applications on handheld devices are becoming more influential in our digital lifestyle. The Forum Iulium produced for smartphones is a variant of augmented reality that with the use of geopositioning present a virtual representation of a known landmark in Rome. The effect of digital learning can be enhanced by learning through experience and the engagement through immersive interfaces. In this paper I discuss the experiences in developing and testing this application, what opportunities it creates for teaching and whether it can replace other more traditional teaching methods. |
