HP Reveal... Augmented Reality... Changing Reality

https://sekaimkd.com/2018/05/27/aurasma-hp-reveal-a-hit-and-run-case/


According to Merriam- Webster, “Augmented reality is an enhanced version of reality created by the use of technology to overlay digital information on an image of something being viewed through a device (such as a smartphone camera).”  It also states that augmented reality can also be the name of the technology used to generate/ create augmented reality.   
The first time that I saw augmented reality being used was on Snapchat, an online social media application.  Then, when discovering HP Reveal (previously known as Aurasma), my eyes were opened to the possibilities of augmented reality being used and incorporated into not just the library but schools in general.  HP Reveal is an amazing application that can be used on mobile devices to enhance learning. 
The HP Reveal Application can be downloaded onto your mobile device through Google Play or the AppStore for Apple users. 
Once you have installed this application, you wall then be prompted to enter your email account and create a username and password.  You will need to log into your email in order to verify your account.  The information used to log into the mobile application, can be used to log into the HP Reveal Studio website
Using this augmented reality is simple.  The video below gives step by step directions on how this application can be used in the classroom. 

HP Reveal can be used in the library to bring books to life.  It could be used when students are being taught about research, and when students are learning something new.  For example, when students are doing research and they are using the encyclopedia, certain photographs or pages can become digital.  While reading books in the library, especially for the younger grades, as you are reading to the class, certain images or pages can become a trigger to give more information. 

 Below are informative videos that can aid in using and incorporating HP Reveal (Aurasma).

Cyberbullying

     According to KSmith1203’s Digital Curation: Cyberbullying , there are four elements of this form of bullying and it is done digitally.  Cyberbullying can consist of harmful, or hateful posts, tweets, images or images being shared and uploaded onto the web.  Sadly, there is not a specific type of person who would become targeted in cyberbullying.  Parents, children, teachers, athletes, doctors, a group of individuals, etc. can all be targets.  Just like bullying, there are no specific reason for someone to cyberbully another.      What stand out the most to me about cyberbullying, is the fact that once something is posted digitally, it is out there.   For example, someone decides to email another person a mean and disrespectful email.   Once that email is sent, it cannot be retracted.   Another example would be if someone post an embarrassing image online as a joke, that image could be saved, reposted, and even reimaged to become something even worst.   Regardless of if t
