The Application and Effects of Augmented Reality in Geometry Learning
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: With the development of new technology, augmented reality (AR) technology is revolutionizing the educational landscape, particularly in geometry. This innovative approach deepens their comprehension of geometric principles and stimulates their motivation to learn. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive introduction to AR’s application in the educational field, especially the topic of geometry, and evaluate its effectiveness in improving users in two aspects: motivation and academic results. The study applies the Attention, Relevance, Confidence, and Satisfaction (ARCS) Model to assess the impact of AR in education compared to traditional teaching. It finds that AR boosts student motivation, especially for those with lower academic performance. While AR enhances learning experiences, its effect on improving grades is not immediate. The method that is mainly utilized in this study is reviewing the literature, summarizing, and analyzing critical information from them. And it turns out that short-term grade improvements are not significantly observable, AR technology offers long-term benefits by enhancing engagement and conceptual comprehension through interactive and spatial visualizations.
