Our learning platform is now live!
CARS is an Erasmus+ project which aims to promote augmented reality (AR) as a medium children can use to create and share their own stories as part of their language learning experience.Â
Project No: 2023-1-MT01-KA220-SCH-000154134.
The CARS Project has now officially concluded, bringing together 33 months of collaboration, classroom implementation, research, and shared learning. The project’s final resources, findings, and practical guidance reflect the experiences of teachers, students, and partners across Europe. While formal activities have ended, these outputs provide a lasting foundation for educators to continue exploring creative AR storytelling in language learning.
Our mission is to unlock the creative potential of children by integrating augmented reality into language education, fostering a global community of young storytellers.
CARS emphasises immersive language education for young learners, harnessing the captivating power of augmented reality. By engaging a vibrant network of primary schools, our partners will explore and evaluate the effectiveness of AR as a storytelling and pedagogical tool. Comprehensive training activities for teachers will be a cornerstone of the project, equipping them to guide children in becoming the narrators of their own stories.
Fostering creativity, children take the helm as architects of their own interactive AR narratives.
Leveraging AR technology to transcend traditional learning, offering immersive and engaging education experiences.
Cultivating storytelling, where stories become a dynamic canvas for language and cultural expression.
CARS concludes on 31 August after 33 months of European collaboration. We reflect on its aims, shared resources, and classroom experiences.
