Abstract
Recent technological advances have revolutionized the learning and teaching process. The integration of a particular technology will give limitless opportunities to obtain experiences that would not be otherwise available. Augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) are becoming more and more popular in education; therefore, educators and academics became interested in investigating their potential as learning environments for many disciplines including language learning. The purpose of this chapter is to discuss different applications of AR and VR in education and language learning. In order to fulfill this aim, different AR and VR technologies and their features were discussed. Furthermore, the affordances and challenges of AR and VR in language teaching and learning were pointed out. This chapter concludes with future directions for research regarding AR and VR in educational settings. The study includes some implications for practitioners and researchers interested in educational technologies.
