How to Play GeoGeek AR

Last week I wrote a brief overview of a fun geography app called
GeoGeek AR. The “AR” in the app’s name stands for augmented reality. The use of AR makes it possible to put a digital globe right into your classroom or anywhere else that your students are standing when holding an iPad or Android tablet. Yesterday, a reader emailed me for an explanation of how to use the app. Like most things, it’s easier to show it in a screencast than it is to write out directions. So I made
this short demo video. Watch it to the end for a special guest appearance by one of my dogs. 

Applications for Education

As I wrote last week, 
GeoGeek AR doesn’t require you to register in order to play. That can make it a good option for use on shared classroom iPads. Overall, it’s a fun little game for practicing place identification.
