Augmented Lectures: A Liquid Feedback System for the Traditional and Blended Classroom

In this talk, we describe the concept of an augmented reality application that can be employed with readily available hardware as a drop-in support system for traditional and blended lecture environments. Through augmented reality, instructors become enabled to present and view their classes at the same time, answering anonymously posed questions, and react to the connected learner's rating in a live fashion, aiding in increased effectiveness for learning content delivery. At the same time, learners become empowered to follow a lecture using a browser- capable device and to provide live feedback, including ratings, to the instructor.
