For this blog assignment, learn a bit more about Augmented Reality technologies. Explore new developments on the Net. Check out the list of resources I’ve linked on our Syllabus. Try out an example of AR if you can.

And then write an extended blog post, as specific as possible about what you think the potential benefits and/or drawbacks of introducing augmented reality tools into our daily lives. How might it change society?

Also: think about the digital rhetorical of your blog post to maximize the number of people who read and potentially respond to it:

• Give it a catchy title
• Figure out how to make any links or media live in the text
• Add “tags” in the field to the right to make it more searchable.

Here is the Prezi from our first class with key terms etc.

For your first blog, use this site to introduce yourself, what you’re studying, your interests in technology — and then make a short pitch for a topic, theme, trend or technology that you think we ought to focus part of the course on and that might make an interesting focus for the Augmented Reality group project.
