Work-In-Progress-Teaching Invisible Phenomena and Virtual Experiments: Immersion or Augmentation?

This work-in-progress discusses Immersive Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality for teaching invisible phenomena and virtual science experiments in Materials Science. Immersion, coupled with 3D spatial interaction, is useful when the knowledge to be acquired is procedural, to create a sense of scale and to allow easy navigation within a large experimental space. Immersion is also beneficial to tra...
