Abstract
As technology has continued to expand our society’s interconnectedness, it has also provided
educators with a large opportunity to use this technology as a resource for engagement in the
classroom. Three-dimensional modeling systems such as augmented reality (AR) have allowed
for students to explore scientific phenomena that previously could not be observed and immerse
themselves into environments that would otherwise be inaccessible or put them in simulations
that allow for interactions that they would not get in their typical day-to-day life. Utilizing AR
systems in the adolescent classroom provides a unique opportunity for educators to further
engage students in the learning process. With a direct connection between student
engagement/interest and cognitive development, using a new, interesting system of technology,
which breaks away from the monotony of classroom instruction, can be a refreshing and
enjoyable way to learn science. To apply this research, Anatomy & Physiology Curriculum was
created in collaboration with the Aquinas Institute of Rochester for their use. These materials
were developed with a direct incorporation of AR lessons into the learning process. These
lessons allowed for an easy progression of the use of AR to ensure proper utilization of the tool
and explores a large variety of body systems in a manner that cannot be done in a typical
classroom setting.
