Using augmented reality in molecular case studies to enhance biomolecular structure-function explorations in undergraduate classrooms
(2024)

Molecular case studies (MCSs) are open educational resources that use a storytelling approach to engage students in biomolecular structure-function explorations, at the interface of biology and chemistry. Augmented reality (AR) is an interactive and engaging experience that has been used effectively in teaching molecular sciences.

Read about the incorporation of ready-to-use AR objects as checkpoints in the MCS. Interacting with these AR objects facilitated instructor preparation, reduced students’ cognitive load, and provided clear expectations for their learning.
