AR Debuting in GATE Capstone Projects

It's Capstone Project season in GATE classes right now across the district.  During GATE pull-out classes, students focus on curriculum that explores a universal concept and generalizations.  Capstone Projects require students to reflect on that learning from the school year and to apply that universal concept and generalizations to a topic of interest.  During a Capstone Project, students pursue independent research on a topic of their choice using several “thick” questions that they develop to guide their work and relating the topic back to the universal concept and generalizations.

Lately, some students in Glenna Harris' Gate class have chosen to present their project through the use of augmented reality.  Metaverse is an online augmented reality platform that allows users to create their own augmented reality experience.  Once the experience is created, it can be accessed by using the Metaverse app on any iDevice.

To learn more about augmented reality and how it can be used with your students, contact your campus Digital Learning Specialist.  We are glad to help!
