Abstract :
Although previous research has shown promising results on 3D in education, the standard method of viewing 3D content would not be practical in Hong Kong as many students need to wear two pairs of glasses due to nearsightedness. This paper will present our study of using the automultiscopic LCD display of Marvel Digital for 3D teaching on General Studies in a primary school in Hong Kong. Significant findings support that pupils learn science topics better in 3D than in 2D.
