Abstract

Embodiments describe an approach for improving learning techniques based on a virtual augmented reality learning platform, comprising generating one or more augmented reality learning memories of one or more instructors teaching a task to one or more instructees. Creating ranking scores for the one or more augmented reality memories based on learning effectiveness of the one or more instructees. Incorporating a portion of the one or more augmented reality memories into a virtual augmented reality learning platform based on the ranking scores, and sharing the virtual augmented reality learning platform with the one or more instructees not associated with the portion of the one or more augmented reality memories.

Claims (57)

1. A method for improving learning techniques based on a virtual augmented reality learning platform, the method comprising:

generating, by one or more processors, a virtual reality or augmented reality platform for sharing augmented reality memories to display in a virtual reality headset or on an augmented reality device;

generating, by one or more processors, one or more augmented reality learning memories of one or more instructors teaching a task to one or more instructees to access through the virtual reality headset or on the augmented reality device;

creating, by one or more processors, ranking scores for the one or more augmented reality memories based on learning effectiveness of the one or more instructees;

incorporating, by one or more processors, a portion of the one or more augmented reality memories into a virtual augmented reality learning platform based on the ranking scores;

sharing, by one or more processors, the virtual augmented reality learning platform with the one or more instructees not associated with the portion of the one or more augmented reality memories; and

outputting, by one or more processors, the ranked augmented reality memories onto the virtual reality or the augmented reality platform for instructees to access through the virtual reality headset or on the augmented reality device.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein instructors comprise at least one of: one or more parents of a student or one or more teachers of a student, and wherein instructees comprises one or more students.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

tracking, by the one or more processors, interactions of the one or more instructees with the one or more augmented reality memories.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the tracking further comprises: tracking the one or more augmented reality memories based on a student ID and a homework ID and evaluating at least one of: homework assignments, quizzes, scores, and grades of the one or more instructees.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

sharing, by the one or more processors, the one or more augmented reality memories to the one or more instructees, and the one or more instructors.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein ranking further comprises:

analyzing, by the one or more processors, engagement of the one or more instructees by processing audio and text transcripts of the one or more instructees to determine a level of excitement, correlating keywords that match the determined level of excitement to rate engagement levels of the one or more instructees, and computing and scoring an engagement vector; and

ranking, by the one or more processors, teaching styles by determining a change in test, homework, assignment, project, research paper and presentation scores, of the one or more instructees to evaluate the processed teaching styles based on a Delta Score.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining the effectiveness of one or more augmented reality memories further comprises:

comparing, by the one or more processors, the one or more augmented reality memories against other augmented reality memories, wherein comparing the one or more augmented reality memories is used to determine which of the one or more augmented reality memories are better suited for a particular instructee.

8. A computer system for improving learning techniques based on a virtual augmented reality learning platform, the computer system comprising:

one or more computer processors;

one or more computer readable storage devices;

program instructions stored on the one or more computer readable storage devices for execution by at least one of the one or more computer processors, the stored program instructions comprising:

program instructions to generate a virtual reality or augmented reality platform for sharing augmented reality memories to display in a virtual reality headset or on an augmented reality device;

program instructions to generate one or more augmented reality learning memories of one or more instructors teaching a task to one or more instructees to access through the virtual reality headset or on the augmented reality device;

program instructions to create ranking scores for the one or more augmented reality memories based on learning effectiveness of the one or more instructees;

program instructions to incorporate a portion of the one or more augmented reality memories into a virtual augmented reality learning platform based on the ranking scores;

program instructions to share the virtual augmented reality learning platform with the one or more instructees not associated with the portion of the one or more augmented reality memories; and

program instructions to output the ranked augmented reality memories onto the augmented reality platform for instructees to access through the virtual reality headset or on the augmented reality device.

9. The computer system of claim 8 , wherein instructors comprise at least one of: one or more parents of a student or one or more teachers of a student, and wherein instructees comprises one or more students.

10. The computer system of claim 8 , further comprising:

program instructions to track interactions of the one or more instructees with the one or more augmented reality memories.

11. The computer system of claim 10 , wherein the tracking further comprises: tracking the one or more augmented reality memories based on a student ID and a homework ID and evaluating at least one of: homework assignments, quizzes, scores, and grades of the one or more instructees.

12. The computer system of claim 8 , further comprising:

program instructions to share the one or more augmented reality memories to the one or more instructees, and the one or more instructors.

13. The computer system of claim 8 , wherein ranking further comprises:

program instructions to analyze engagement of the one or more instructees by processing audio and text transcripts of the one or more instructees to determine a level of excitement, correlating keywords that match the determined level of excitement to rate engagement levels of the one or more instructees, and computing and scoring an engagement vector; and

program instructions to rank teaching styles by determining a change in at least one of: test, homework, assignment, project, research paper and presentation scores of the one or more instructees to evaluate the processed teaching styles based on a Delta Score.

14. The computer system of claim 8 , wherein determining the effectiveness of one or more augmented reality memories further comprises:

program instructions to compare the one or more augmented reality memories against other augmented reality memories, wherein comparing the one or more augmented reality memories is used to determine which of the one or more augmented reality memories are better suited for a particular instructee.

15. A computer program product for improving learning techniques based on a virtual augmented reality learning platform, the computer program product comprising:

one or more computer readable storage devices and program instructions stored on the one or more computer readable storage devices, the stored program instructions comprising:
