  5. 3D Projectors • Images seem to extend into the audience and into the background of the screen • Projects two images on to the screen • One for the right eye and one for the left eye blog.wareseeker.com vidimensio.eu

  6. Benefits of 3D technology • Cost effective • Can do both 3D and 2D • Many different lesson plans and many more to come • Dissecting a frog • Deconstructing DNA • Fly through solar system • Math concepts • Disassemble the brain • Swim the Great Barrier Reef cryengine2.com

  7. Research in the classroom • Post test score improved by 35% • Compared to the 9.7% who did not see the 3D lesson • Females improved by 35% • Males improved by 29% • Students were: • Engaged • Reaching in to the air to grab objects • All of the children behaved • All children paying attention

Research in the classroom • Students given cell phones with internet access • 83% of students involved passed Algebra II • 75% of the school passed Algebra II • State average 73% of the students passed Algebra II • 90% of students involved said they were more comfortable with math after the program flowtv.org
