A Review on Google Glass Feedback Using Augmented Lectures Feedback System

The use of Augmented Reality to aid learning has been extensively researched, but its use to aid teaching practise has only recently begin to be investigated. We describe a communication system that uses a pair of Google Glass to provide a constant and confidential flow of information about the students’ current knowledge to the teacher in this study. The suggested approach allows students’ information to overlap with the teachers’ live vision of the class via their mobile phones. Unlike previous feedback systems such as clickers or backchannel systems, this AR prototype does not require teachers to divert their sight or interrupt the class in order to get the students’ feedback. This allows for continuous monitoring of any comprehension issues that might otherwise go unnoticed. We conducted two experiments in which the system was deployed in real classroom settings in order to gain insight into the teachers’ and students’ perspectives on the system. Both research’ findings imply that the AR system could provide benefits in terms of improved communication between students and professors, as well as a more appropriate class rhythm. Furthermore, the usage of the AR system in the classroom does not always imply that it will distract and disturb instructional activities.
