M4 P3 Mixed Reality in Education

Mixed reality is a technology still in its infancy; however, I see great potential for teaching second languages, specifically Indigenous languages. I envision being able to teach plant names, place names, medicine gathering and other cultural place based activities through technologies such as these. Many Indigenous people do not live close to their territory and would still like to learn their language and be able to learn their language in a place based setting. This technology is likely a long way off from being accessible to a majority of institutions; however, the benefits could be great.
