Joyful Adult Training Using Augmented Reality
End date: Oct 1, 2016
PROJECT
FINISHED
The 2-year JoyAR partnership brings along 9 EU partners with the aim of sharing knowledge about the technology known as Augmented Reality (AR) and to explore how it can be employed to create joyful adult education and training environments. Through a number of transnational mobilities and following a review of how AR is currently exploited in education, the JoyAR consortium prepared a number of case-studies to help both the partners and others appreciate the benefits AR brings to education stakeholders. In developing this knowledge base, two partners already experienced in the application of AR in technical applications, shared their knowledge with the other members of the consortium. In addition, the JoyAr partnership generated practical demonstrations of “AR in adult education”, taking history and science as case-study topics. The JoyAR consortium also developed a website that was used both for raising awareness of the project and also for the exchange of best practices, besides dissemination of results such as the JoyAR educational demos produced. Finally, the project statistically analyzed how AR-based training influences the competencies of adult learners and also recommend how such AR-based learning can be validated and formally recognized.
