Abstract :
In order to let all students concentrate on their learning, teachers presented learning content with projector, projection screen and computer. However, it is not easy to immerse into their learning content and apply knowledge to real life. We construct an immersive and interactive learning playground with classroom and textbooks´ content. Students can immerse into a virtual environment under authentic learning. In this research, we have an experiment in a school for a semester and discover that our system enhanced students´ feeling of immersion and provided more interaction in learning.
