CARS Project EU Moves from Research to Results

July marked an important milestone for the CARS Project EU as we wrapped up Work Package 4: Empirical Study of AR in Language Classes. Over the past months, partners across Spain, Cyprus, and Malta have been busy developing and applying observation protocols, questionnaires, and teacher interviews to explore how children engage with Augmented Reality (AR) as a storytelling tool in language learning.

With classroom observations complete and data collection concluded, July served as the transition point from research to reflection. The insights gained will now guide the next stage of the project, where partners will analyze the collected data, compile results across schools, and begin developing practical guidelines and dissemination activities to help teachers and policymakers adopt AR more effectively in their classrooms.

This is an exciting moment for the consortium, as we move from testing in classrooms to ensuring that what we’ve learned reaches a wider audience of educators, researchers, and policymakers. Stay tuned as we begin translating research into impact!
