Three years of positive teacher feedback on MoleculARweb, our website for chemistry education using commodity augmented reality
In education, embracing technology has become crucial for enhancing the learning experience. One such innovation in the field of chemistry education is MoleculARweb, a website created by myself and Fabio Cortes and funded by Switzerland’s research council (grant report here) that employs commodity augmented reality (AR) to make the subject more engaging and accessible to students. The impact of this innovative approach is resonating with educators, as evidenced by the overwhelmingly positive feedback received from teachers worldwide. Here you will discover more about this feedback, based on AI-assisted analyses of the messages collected from teachers over 3 years.
MoleculARweb stands out for its ability to merge the digital and physical worlds seamlessly, without obstacles or incurring in any costs. By leveraging web-based AR technology that is accessible on most smartphones and tablets, students can visualize complex chemical structures in three dimensions, turning abstract concepts into tangible, interactive experiences. This approach not only fosters a deeper understanding of chemistry but also ignites students’ curiosity and passion for the subject. Here you have some articles where I have described several of moleculARweb’s…
