Pathania, Manisha; Mantri, Archana; Kaur, Deepti Prit; Singh, Chander Partap; Sharma, Bhanu – Technology, Knowledge and Learning, 2023
Over the past numerous years, the training structure is applying outdated strategies that keep schools from moving to competency-based models. Since most of the parts are instructor-oriented, the students are the detached party in the classroom which prompts less communication between students and the instructor. Augmented Reality (AR) is an…
