Abstract

Current knowledge delivery methods in education should move away from memory based learning to more motivated and creative education. This paper will emphasize on the advantages tangible interaction can bring to education. Augmented Chemistry provides an efficient way for designing and interacting with the molecules to understand the spatial relations between molecules. For Students it is very informative to see actual molecules representation 3D environment, inspect molecules from multiple viewpoints and control the interaction of molecules. We present in this paper an Augmented Reality system for teaching spatial relationships and chemical-reaction problem-solving skills to school-level students based on the VSEPR theory. Our system is based on inexpensive webcams and open-source software. We hope this willgenerate more ideas for educators and researcher to explore Augmented Reality technology in the field of interactive education.
