AR Learning and Accessibility: A Review of Inclusive Educational Practices

Περίληψη

Augmented Reality (AR) bears affordances to be deployed for diverse learners' needs that may be
physically or cognitively challenged to enhance their learning experience by integrating digital
multimedia elements that are superimposed over real objects. This paper is a review of inclusive
educational practices that leverage immersive technologies, and more specifically AR, that investigate
whether these state-of-the-art technologies can ameliorate cases of inaccessibility for the diverse learner
population in various educational settings. There is an investigation of the variety of contexts and
disabilities to be addressed, the implementation findings, and the challenges that participants may face
when using the technology from the technical, operational, cognitive, and/or pedagogical perspectives.
