You must log in to view sessions Mixed, Augmented, and Virtual Realities (MAVR) General Practice-Oriented Short Workshop

Three researchers, two at the university level, and one at a public high school are building a community to share Japanese archaeological artifacts and enhance their students’ learning. This workshop will go over the development of augmented reality (AR) Jomon era pottery models, where they can be accessed freely online, and the development of the classes and curriculum that were taught in English courses to help students engage not only with English, but with history.
