Abstract

Augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) play an important role in today's world. Due to COVID-19, we all are doing many things by online mode. In this virtual place, the importance of AR and VR increases tremendously. With AR and VR tools, students have an inimitable chance to explore historic destinations while remaining in the classroom. Moreover, AR and VR tools provide students the ability to gain deeper understandings of abstract or complex subjects and phenomena that are relatively difficult to understand only by two-dimensional text, pictures, and video. This chapter discusses the similarities and differences of AR and VR and the evaluation of the application of AR and VR into educational programs.
