AR and Education are becoming a "New Combination".

The transformation brought by the new generation of information technology has had an impact on various industries, including the field of education.

AR, as an emerging technology, has found a "new landing point" for creating higher quality teaching models and methods in current academic institutions.

As a leading AR application company in the industry, ALVA Systems collaborates with higher education institutions and vocational colleges to build an AR intelligent training and education platform, helping to upgrade educational models and methods and jointly promoting the development of the education industry.

In this issue of industry trends, we explore the new changes that the combination of AR and education will bring to teaching and practical training under the empowerment of AR technology.

Integration with new technologies is an inevitable trend in the development of modern education.

"The strength of the nation lies in its people, and the development of talented individuals comes from education." As time progresses, the importance of knowledge and talent becomes increasingly prominent, and the role and significance of education are emphasized. This is one of the key reasons why educational institutions are continuously introducing new technologies and transforming traditional teaching methods.

Currently, AR technology is being increasingly applied in modern teaching. The fusion of virtual and reality in learning environments and real-time interactive experiences have created a more enriched and immersive learning approach, enhancing students' understanding and grasp of knowledge.

Furthermore, AR technology can also expand the boundaries of education, making learning more autonomous and personalized. The integration of AR and education is not only an added benefit but also a significant innovative breakthrough. In this regard, ALVA has initiated deep collaborations with numerous universities and vocational colleges to explore new models and scenarios for AR + education.

AR technology drives the "dual transformation" of educational models and methods.

● Transformation of teaching models

From traditional "passive reception" to "autonomous exploration". With the support of AR applications, students can immerse themselves in learning and operations, enabling better understanding and mastery of knowledge. Students can easily complete learning and training by following virtual instructions, operation steps, and other content.

Real-time interaction allows students to have a greater sense of participation, enabling them to explore autonomously and gain in-depth understanding of the subject matter, leading to a more profound comprehension and memory of learned knowledge.

● Transformation of teaching methods

Knowledge transitions from "flat" to "three-dimensional", from simple to complex, and from complex to simplified. Compared to traditional teaching materials such as paper-based resources, PPTs, and videos, the introduction of AR technology makes complex knowledge more tangible, intuitive, and easier to learn and understand.

By leveraging AR technology, a virtual production line can be built 1:1, with virtual data representing the equipment status and operating conditions mapped to the corresponding real-world production line. Students can engage in training exercises anytime, anywhere without the need for physical equipment.

Additionally, teachers can independently create and edit AR courseware based on the subject and curriculum requirements, providing a more diverse and dynamic learning experience. For educational training scenarios, ALVA Systems has launched the AiR Flexible Intelligent Manufacturing Platform, which integrates advanced AR technology with practical training, optimizing the teaching process and facilitating simultaneous theory and practice.

Worth mentioning is that the AiR Flexible Intelligent Manufacturing Platform supports interdisciplinary equipment sharing in disciplines such as mechanics, electrical engineering, software programming, intelligent control, industrial Internet, and communications. Students can freely switch between different training scenarios based on their needs, helping them gain practical knowledge in various relevant fields.
