description No matter what subject is taught, making meaningful connections with the real world is always the ultimate goal. This paper provides an overview of the cross-curricular approach and available augmented reality history apps and the potential for utilising them in history classes. Also, it shows how a variety of theoretical approaches to learning and teaching with immersive technologies have been synthesised to create powerful learning scenarios that integrate History, foreign language learning, social studies, and science - math. This didactic approach with interdisciplinary connecting gives an overview on how to achieve higher quality educational goals and provide students with a different experience. Students’ experiences and reactions to this cross-curricular approach to learning were investigated. The aim is to assess the benefits of the cross-curricular approach using augmented reality while also recording the learning and behavioural outcomes that result from its implementation.
