Augmented & Virtual Reality

ARVR

I personally think that Augmented Reality will make it farther because it is less expensive and can be accessed a little easier. Some schools don't have the money to give teachers to buy the headsets or any of the stuff they need for the Virtual Reality because it can often be expensive. However Augmented Reality is often a free app you can download for the students. Augmented Reality can just need printed papers or a spend a few dollars on the blocks or cards that come with it. I think because Augmented Reality is cheaper I feel like that is why it will go farther

 I see this being useful in a classroom that I teach in one day because I feel like the students would be very interested in it and want to try it themselves(which could sometimes be a problem). Having either Augmented or Virtual Reality in the classroom would also be a way to engage the students in something the class is learning about. Even though this could be used as a way to engage the students it could also be a distraction for them as well so when using or interacting with the two they need to be watched to make sure they are on task.
