3. Enhance - Enhancing Understanding of Regenerative Medicine through Augmented Reality
This section explains how Augmented Reality (AR) deepens students’ understanding of regenerative medicine by making complex biological processes visible, interactive, and meaningful. In this unit, AR is used to support learning about lab-grown organs by allowing students to explore biological structures and bio-inspired technologies that cannot be accessed in a traditional classroom.
3.3 Increasing Engagement through Gamification and Interaction
AR-based activities in this unit include light gamification elements that enhance engagement while keeping the focus on learning:
- Points and badges for completing exploration tasks and decision activities,
- Scenario-based challenges related to regenerative medicine,
- Collaborative discussion tasks where students compare decisions and outcomes.
Gamification encourages participation, reflection, and teamwork without distracting from scientific content.
