Augmented Reality
Augmented Reality (AR) is a growing field of technology where real life is modified and enhanced by computer-generated sights and sounds. The most common use of AR can be seen through mobile apps.

The effect makes the computer-generated item appear like it’s really there. Here are 7 cool apps to use with students in the classroom or even just for yourself.
