A colleague just asked me if I knew anyone who was using Augmented Reality for learning. I’m not and I gave him the standard advice about looking through LinkedIn Guide for Knowledge Workers, LinkedIn for Finding Expertise, and Searching for Expertise - LinkedIn Answers. He did that, but didn’t find particular people. Probably I need to update my posts because there have to be lots of people who would be involved in training and augmented reality found via LinkedIn. I just tried a search for “augmented reality” as a keyword along with either title contains “training” or “learning” and found some interesting folks.
My next suggestion was to use eLearning Learning to search. This gave rise to the additional of a new keyword Augmented Reality on eLearning Learning. You may have wondered where the keywords come from. :)
Actually, this leads to quite a treasure trove of great posts:

And this naturally leads to both the people/companies in the various case studies as well as suggests some folks to contact such as Judy Brown, Karl Kapp, Lars Hyland, David Hopkins and more. At least they’ll likely have a bit more clue as to who to talk to.
If you have suggestions for my colleague, we are all ears.
