  • Abstract
    Google glass is a hands-free, head-mounted intelligent device that can be worn as a wearable computing eyewear. This work discusses its potential in education by proposing an application, the Glassist, aiming at helping teachers management tasks. The application allows teachers to create individual portfolios for students, manage their information and share it with peers. The tool uses Augmented Reality to recognize students face and display relevant information about them. We also discuss some preliminary results regarding its evaluation. To conclude, we point out some future works.
