Abstract

This document outlines the design, schedule and findings for the evaluation of a trial using HoloLens technology as a teaching tool at Canberra Grammar School, Australia. The trial was initiated in October 2016 with a series of teacher design sessions, followed by an application (app) development stage led by Pearson TQ Education and Training (referred to as Pearson throughout this report). The main trial of the prototype apps took place during the period May to June 2017. During the trial, data was collected from students, teachers and the school executive using a range of methods including surveys, interviews, and focus groups. This evaluation report has been prepared for Pearson, and the data generated will also be used to inform subsequent academic research on the use of HoloLens technology and mixed reality as teaching and learning tools in other secondary school contexts. Overall, this was a limited but encouraging and successful trial. The teacher and student responses are very positive with the finding that students responded in complex ways to the experience.
