Teach Me a Story: an Augmented Reality Application for Teaching History in Middle School

摘要

Augmented Reality (AR) is now more and more widespread in many application fields. Thanks to the new progresses in computer power, AR can now be used widely in education without any expensive additional devices. In this paper is presented the feedback of an experimental protocol using an AR application as an additional support for a History lesson in secondary schools. Even if the technical part has a lead role in the student experience, the most challenging issue is related to the choice of the teaching lesson as itself which must fit several, sometimes contradictory, requirements.
