HP Reveal

Hi everyone, today I am here with a new application for you! HP Reveal is an augmented reality application in which you can create unique materials!

First of all, Augmented reality is the technology that expands our physical world, adding layers of digital information onto it. Unlike Virtual Reality (VR), AR does not create the whole artificial environments to replace real with a virtual one. AR appears in direct view of an existing environment and adds sounds, videos, graphics to it.

So, basically you can take a photograph and then add some pictures or gifs to it. When students scan that picture with their phones or tablets, they see the thing you add to it.

In the example that I have created for you, I have used a picture of a forest to teach the unit of Animals. Of course it is a really short example because I'm aiming to show you how it works, not to design a lesson.

Here you can watch my video

As come to why we should use it in our classes;

-it increases learners' motivation,

-helps us to design our own materials,

-makes learning more contextualized,

-makes the learning experience more authentic which means real-life-like.
