This is essentially advertising content ruin as news in edCircuit. The story is that Zoic Labs has launched a collaborative multiplayer AR app called Step Into Biology, that demonstrates biological functions through interactivity and user-activated animations. The suggestion is that teachers would use this to teach students concepts like the golgi apparatus. All very nice, but it's a lot better if you actually need to visualize the golgi apparatus for some reason. If it's just another biology lesson feeding content to students the AR gets old on a hurry.
