Immersion, AR, and learning with Phil Birchinall

In this episode of HEP Talks, Luke Kemper talks with Phil Birchinall, Senior Director of Immersive Content at Discovery Education, about the concept of immersion and its connections with learning, and how augmented reality (AR) can induce a state of immersion in pupils. Discovery Education, an edtech company which provides digital learning resources to millions of teachers around the world, has developed Sandbox AR, a free tool for schools to use. During the conversation, Phil talks about the experiences pupils and teachers have had with the tool, and how educators can use it to create immersive experiences in their schools.
