My Project
My students are curious, creative, and full of questions about the world around them—and I want to give them the tools to explore answers in the most exciting way possible: Augmented Reality.
This project brings Merge Cubes and the Merge EDU platform into our classroom.
Students will use these cubes with iPads to hold virtual planets, dissect cells, explore volcanoes, and interact with real-time 3D models. This hands-on tech makes abstract science ideas concrete and engaging, especially for students with diverse learning needs.
With just a cube and an iPad, my students can work in pairs, rotate between stations, and dive into interactive science content that boosts comprehension, curiosity, and collaboration.
