The article on Mashable, 7 Ways Augmented Reality Will Improve Your Life, is very interesting and informative of what augmented reality can do for our society. The article discusses how many things we can use augmented reality in our world. For example, the article discusses the use of augmented reality when designing your home. AR can also be helpful for travelling and even in the classrooms. The article states, "Using AR in this way would be great at home and in classrooms, where history teachers could take students on a "class trip" to the Great Wall of China and even pose for a picture, making education deeply personal and thus, more memorable," (Drell, 2012).

As the technology continually advances, so does how classrooms operate. I know that while siting in my history class, it would have been incredibly interesting to be able to use augmented reality to be able to see the places that we were learning about as if I was in that country.

Augmented reality can be useful and helpful in a number of different ways. It truly makes life a whole lot cooler!
