Teaching technical skills courses is an integral element in most educational systems, however, the skills students need to acquire have been changing radically over the past 100 years. This change continues, as technology increasingly penetrates everyday life, demanding to acquire new skills. In many countries, technical education starts in primary school and the basics of technical literacy are taught to pupils aged 6–14. In the Czech Republic and Slovakia, future primary teachers are required to develop novel teaching approaches to develop technical literacy and skills for pupils aged 6–14 in a rapidly evolving digital world. This chapter aims to highlight the possibilities of using extended and augmented reality applications in technical education for the preparation of future teachers.
