How to make the things discussed in class more concrete for students? The various multimedia resources available to teachers have changed things a lot in recent years. Interactive tables, videos have improved pedagogical practices.

Augmented reality the use of which in school remains anecdotal makes it possible to go much further. If you want an overview of the possibilities offered by augmented reality applications, take a look at Foxar. Your students have not finished widening their eyes.

Augmented reality to understand the world around us

Foxar is an amazing augmented reality app that is designed to make learning easier and more fun for students. It is an innovative solution that introduces augmented reality to schools and allows students and teachers to enjoy immersive learning environments with augmented reality tools. Ideal also to develop their imagination. Spectacular.

The idea of the creators of this augmented reality app is one sentence: To understand is first to visualise concretely.

Foxar is an application for conduct augmented reality experiments very easily. The smartphone or tablet app makes it possible to view objects in 3D in motion, and to be able to manipulate them intuitively. An interactive visualization that will facilitate the understanding especially of students in difficulty but beyond all students.

A 3D viewer to make studied objects appear in class

The use of this technology is much simplified. Foxar is a good example. Once the augmented reality app for Apple or Android is downloaded and installed on a tablet or smartphone, the hardest part is done.

Foxar will then offer you one of its augmented reality experiences from a library of mock-ups that users will be able to use. The platform offers more than 100 of them. They were all designed in collaboration with teachers.

Examples of mock-ups

SVT, Technology, Geography, Art, Astronomy, Architecture …many fields are covered.

Do you want to make your students aware of the distance between the earth and the moon? Use the model from the app and make the solar system appear on a table!

Students see augmented reality through the tablet screen and can move around.

We knew experiences like Quiver, or the demos of Google Arts Culture which makes extensive use of augmented reality in its website. Through the Foxar app and features Augmented reality will be invited into the classroom.

Pedagogical uses to invent

Foxar’s mock-ups make it very easy to integrate augmented reality into the classroom. The potential is enormous. This type of software opens up many particularly interesting uses. I am thinking in particular of technical or vocational education. The concept should also find its place in vocational training and even within companies.

Foxar is a free mobile app for education. You will find it in the "app store" with well-worn software and without any advertising. Take a test, you may be surprised.
