Dissertation research

Hello!

I'm looking for people to test my dissertation tool - if you can spare about 30 minutes to test it out and give me some feedback, I'd be very grateful!

My dissertation is about basic augmented reality (AR) and mobile learning for workshops in HE - do these tools increase engagement?  

This tool was designed to be used in a workshop setting to give an introduction to AR. Participants would be given a printed worksheet which they would scan with the Layar app, then interact with the content and post any comments, ideas or questions they have during the workshop on the wallwisher board - these could then be addressed as the session progresses or as a group at the end.

[The outcomes of the workshop session would be to create a definition of AR, to consider the practical/ current applications in education and whether these could be useful for teaching and learning in your subject area.]

Instructions:

1. Download the layar app to your mobile device: tablets like iPad work very well but also works on most forms of smart phone. Follow the links:

iOS           Android          Simbian  


2. Print the image below. Activate the layar app and hold your device over the image. Scan using the app to activate content.






3. Play around with the app as if you were in a workshop - view the content on AR and post any comments to the wallwisher. You can ignore the sticktu app which is not part of the tool itself but an additional application offered by layar.


4. Click on the 'survey' icon at the bottom right hand side of the image. This should take you to the online questionnaire. If it doesn't, click here. The questionnaire should take about 5-10 mins to complete.


I'm looking for any feedback, good or bad, that will help my research. 

A massive thank you for helping me!!
