Augmented Reality Modules
This course is a practicum that uses a new Apple Teacher curriculum built around 9 freely available AR apps for the iPhone and iPad. Students learn to design lessons incorporating AR across the full range of PK-16 content.
Module 4: Night Sky App
As the Apple Teacher explains, the Night Sky app lets you reach for the stars. By stepping into a virtual planetarium with Night Sky, you can start exploring and find stars, constellations, and satellites. You can see the orbit of a planet or a moon and explore models of complex astronomical objects.
