Hello Legion gamers!

Yesterday was Education Technology Day! A day when we recap on technological advances in education and think about how technology makes education easier, better and more accessible.

Of course, one could argue that a PC or a smartphone is the best educational technology, and there is merit to that, but what about more specialised technology? Smartboards, speech recognition (and speech-to-text transcript), virtual and augmented reality, 3D printers, holographic projection, and more: all these devices are becoming more common in educational institutions.

So what do you think is a good device for learning?

AR, XR and VR are becoming essential tools for learning difficult tasks like surgery.
Here´s a small review on the subject.

And thinking of the School of tomorrow, sometimes I wonder if devices like this will replace pen and paper soon:

Last update about AR...could this be the next iteration of the smartphone? 🤔

@CandelaSynth that is quite impressive! And maybe it would inspire more people to handwrite again, I have to say the only time nowadays when I handwrite is when making shopping lists 😅

@Aaricia
hahaha, 100%
To me, the most interesting proposal behind that device is the lack of distractions: arguably, you could do the same with a tablet and a stylus, but not having distractions like apps or the internet would help people to focus...what do you think?

@CandelaSynth ah yes, taking away the distractions would work wonders 😁
