ABSTRACT
This chapter explores the development of visual support tools to enhance the instructional experience of chemical engineering students actively involved in laboratory experimentation activities while mitigating the challenges of laboratory work. Integral to engineering instruction is educational laboratories that provide students with the hands-on experience necessary to supplement and clarify the scientific theory discussed in lectures. Lab activities are an integral part of engineering education. Enhancing the educational experience associated with laboratory work to account for changing student expectations necessitates investigating alternative approaches to the traditional methods of instruction. Wearable technologies equipped with Augmented Reality capabilities offer a lot of promise for education and training especially for the applied science disciplines. The chapter examines the impact of the proposed approach on the instructional experience of students was measured in terms of two factors: learning and training, and execution and support.
