Designing AR for kids.

Designing for School Settings What kinds of curriculum based activities can be created when the device knows where you are and where everything in the classroom is located? Suspend virtual pyramid pieces in physical space Create mathematical clues so the other team can locate each piece

Designing for School Settings Students locate the missing pieces of a virtual pyramid, by following the instructions left by their classmates. Using math, coded messages, programming code, or another type of communication, students find the virtual objects located in their classroom and complete the pyramid. Interpret and solve clues created by another group Find and assemble all pieces to form the virtual pyramid
