Description
Project OAR (Oceanographic Augmented Reality) is a software-based tool that leverages embodied cognition with augmented and virtual reality to create highly engaging and impactful oceanographic training. With OAR, trainees will see oceanographic animated behaviors up close and from several angles to help ensure learning. The project brings together education researchers, software developers, and oceanography subject matter experts to create a software tool that provides animated web-based vignettes, mechanisms for building in scaffolding and overlays for instructional points of interest, incorporates assessment, and recommends training options based on learner progress. The software will allow instructors (and subject matter experts) to easily build training scenarios that are immersive and interactive.
