\nUsing Layar’s Creator\u00a0 app, there could be numerous and creative applications of these technologies within the realm of education.\u00a0 For example, in a Chemistry class, one could have printouts of some of the types of equipment one would use in an experiment. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"TypesOfChemEquipment\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Looking at a particular piece of paper (and having loaded the app) would trigger a pop-up with that piece of equipment’s name, function, and\/or other information as well as which step(s) of the experiment that you will be using that piece of equipment on.<\/span><\/p>\n

Or, one could see instructions for how to put things together using this combination of tools. A set of printed directions could pop up a quick video for how to execute that step of the directions. (I sure could have used that sort of help in putting together our daughter’s crib I tell ya!)<\/span><\/p>\n
