In the classroom
One of the most exciting application of holograms is to the improvement of the educational experience. In order to engage students more fully, interactive digital lessons will be used in schools. This combination of digital and real-world information is known as mixed reality.
Complex subjects can be taught using holographic images that students can interact with and examine. For example, pupils can virtually explore the ruins of ancient building during history lessons, or observe individual atomic particles and how they behave.
Educational experience
Australian students are being taught via hologram in a revolutionary world first that is being tested at a Canberra school.
The new “mixed reality” technology will enable history students to walk through a 3,000-year-old building or science students to step inside a molecule or witness the inner workings of the human heart.
The experimental program, being conducted by global education company Pearson, uses the Microsoft HoloLens, which is described as “the world’s first untethered holographic computer.”
Unlike conventional virtual reality goggles, the device inserts a 3D interactive hologram into the “real world” – much like a real life Roger Rabbit.
The user is able to interact with, for example, the inner workings of a life-sized human body in the classroom or walk among a 3D rendering of the solar system.
The technology also has the potential for a student to “HoloSkype” into a lesson, enabling teachers to interact with whatever the student is doing in real time.
In short, it makes Princess Leia’s message to Obi Wan Kenobi seem like it really does belong a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.
The technology is being tested this week by Pearson’s Immersive Learning division at Canberra Grammar School.
Pearson told news.com.au this was currently the only high school in the world where it is being tested.
Pearson’s Global Director of Immersive Learning Mark Christian said the technology was completely changing the way everything from history to science to math could be taught.
“Gaining access to actual artifacts from ancient civilizations is incredibly difficult,” he told news.com.au.
“With this technology, we’re building a holographic box of artifacts that bring ancient objects to high school students. So instead of reading about ancient Chinese architecture or looking at a picture of a 3,000-year-old house, students can walk inside the house and experience for themselves what it was like to live inside one.”
And for students struggling with math, the technology can make equations literally come alive – with physical representations of what the numbers mean.
“We’re doing similar things with chemistry, anatomy, physiology, art and design, and economics,” Pearson said.
“We’re just getting started, but we see incredible potential.”
The devices, along with specially designed programs, are being tested Tuesday and Wednesday at the school.
Canberra Grammar teachers helped design five apps and they are now part of the school’s coursework.
Nursing school staff at the University of Canberra are also testing the devices.
There are also pilot programs at universities and colleges around the world, however, Canberra Grammar is the first high school to properly trial the technology, Pearson said.
The company expects it to evolve into online tutoring that could be used for everything from nursing to engineering and construction.
