Technology has always been a medium to help teachers provide the best educational experiences for our nation's youth. Augmented and Virtual Reality is becoming more common in the classroom which brings unprecedented opportunities. Our team created an Augmented Reality (AR) application to use with the Merge Cube that focuses on Forces and Motion. This application is used with multiple in-service and pre-service teachers for two reasons. The first is to enhance their understanding of mechanics. The second is that they allow us to asses both the usability and willingness to use not only that application, but ARVR in general. We found that after modifications they were extremely receptive to the application, learned from it and would implement it in the future.

Join us in exploring emergent themes in PER as a scholarly endeavor and as a research community!  Since its inception, PER has served as a confluence of discipline, theory, research methodology, practice, and application.  How have these facets and the interplays among them been fruitful for physics education globally, regionally, locally, or otherwise?  And, how have our successes and interactions influenced the very nature of PER itself?
Following the lead of AAPT for the summer meeting, PERC 20/20 was virtual. Enjoy browsing the content.
