technology used routinely today, “distancelearning” was referred to as an individualized mode of learning only available throughcorrespondence. Today, “distance learning” and interchangeably used “distance education” arecommonly referred to as a field of education that investigates and examines pedagogicaltechnologies and the design of advanced instructional systems used to deliver education remotelyto students who are not physically present in the classroom. Present technology and theaccessibility of the internet have made distance learning much more viable, and it has evolvedfrom traditional ways to robust, more efficient, and more convenient for students and instructors.Online teaching and learning is progressively regarded as a means of

By using the developed AR application, students will be able to learn aboutdiverse science topics more efficiently and visually. The AR mobile application allows the userto project a 3D (3-Dimensional) AR model of science topics on a real-world surface (such as atable or a piece of paper). The users will be able to interact with the model as if it existed outsideof the mobile application using touch interfaces. Visual information helps us to

laboratory courses.Conclusion The Center has found that technology education is the natural K- 12 link to engineering, particularly so inthe MST environment. Design creativity and understanding and using science and mathematics in designanalysis are important elements of technology education. These same elements characterize engineering. Manyengineering schools have developed “pipeline” activities to increase engineering enrollment and interest inengineering, however this does not address the larger issue of technological and scientific illiteracy of students.Support of technology education offers an opportunity to address this issue in a modest yet significant manner.Technology education offers a way for students to understand the abstract
used these two virtual field trips in education. Through these two field trips, the PETE program managed to bring real-worldpetroleum facilities and structures to the classroom. The goal is to increase the students’ interest,promote their curiosity, and enhance their learning experience by using these innovative teachingmethods in courses. In addition, using these technologies improves teaching effectiveness byoffering an active learning environment that provides hands-on experience. Therefore, virtualand augmented reality are becoming the industry standard for employee training.
