Augmented Reality Based Educational Design for Children

Abstract

Human-computer interaction (HCI) has developed rapidly in recent years, and more and more researchers are interested in applying HCI techniques into education. Compared with traditional approaches in the real world, gesture recognition is considered as a reasonable alternative since it is vivid and flexible. However, most of educational equipment nowadays achieves the function of augmented reality, without any interaction. This paper implemented a prototype, not only based on augmented reality system, but also especially we think about the interactive design. Accessibility is achieved by mobile devices and the dynamic switch of gesture recognition. By this interactive method, children are able to interact with the virtual objects easily and naturally. Consequently, children can have a profound and deep understanding of what they learn, and the quality of education will be improved.

ARS Interactive Teaching Mode for Financial Accounting Course based on Smart Classroom

Abstract

Many problems exist in traditional financial accounting course teaching, such as old-fashioned information-based teaching method, singe teaching method, and insufficient student-teacher interaction in the teaching process. These problems influence the effect of course teaching. To enhance student-teacher interaction, improve learning effect, and promote training quality of financial accounting talents, an ARS interactive teaching mode for financial accounting course that integrates Smart Classroom was proposed in this study. Cognitive flexibility theory was used as the theoretical guidance, and Smart Classroom teaching environment was combined to introduce ARS system and multimedia circuit system technology with the PowerPoint (PPT) function of the next page preview. The complete ARS interactive teaching mode based on Smart Classroom was constructed from the following: pre-class, in-class, and after-class integrated teaching; feedback teaching; and Peer Class. Meanwhile, a teaching experiment was conducted in financial accounting course. ARS interactive teaching mode based on Smart Classroom could significantly promote students’ autonomous learning, collaborative communication, classroom activity, and innovative thinking. The teaching mode was welcomed and supported by students. The mode plays a great promotion role in driving integration of information technology and education, achieving educational informationization, and improving the teaching effect of a financial accounting major.
