“…Those findings seem to support the outcomes of research studies (Andujar, Mejias, & Marquez, 2011;Chen, Chi, Hung, & Kang, 2011;Kamarainen et al, 2013;Kaufmann & Schmalstieg, 2003;Lin, Duh, Li, Wang, & Tsai, 2013), which showed that AR technology contributed to improve academic achievement compared to traditional teaching methods. Moreover, it was found that the experimental group showed better results on visualization-related questions than students in the control group.…”

Educational researchers have recognized Augmented Reality (AR) as a technology with great potential to impact affective and cognitive learning outcomes. However, very little work has been carried out to substantiate these claims. The purpose of this study was to assess to which extent an AR learning application affects learners' level of enjoyment and learning effectiveness. The study followed an experimental/control group design using the type of the application (AR-based, web-based) as inde-pendent variable. 64 high school students were randomly assigned to the experimental or control group to learn the basic principles of electromagnetism. The participants' knowledge acquisition was evaluated by comparing pre-and post-tests. The participants' level overall-state perception on flow was measured with the Flow State Scale and their flow states were monitored throughout the learning activity. Finally, participants' perceptions of benefits and difficulties of using the augmented reality application in this study were qualitatively identified. The results showed that the augmented reality approach was more effective in promoting students' knowledge of electromagnetic concepts and phenomena. The analysis also indicated that the augmented reality application led participants to reach higher flow experience levels than those achieved by users of the web-based application. However, not all the factors seem to have influence on learners' flow state, this study found that they were limited to: concentration, dis-torted sense of time, sense of control, clearer direct feedback, and autotelic experience. A deeper analysis of the flow process showed that neither of the groups reported being in flow in those tasks that were very easy or too difficult. However, for those tasks that were not perceived as difficult and included visualization clues, the experimental group showed higher levels of flow that the control group. The study suggests that augmented reality can be exploited as an effective learning environment for learning the basic principles of electromagnetism at high school provided that learning designers strike a careful balance between AR support and task difficulty.

“…Most commonly it is defined as a mixed environment that blends both digital information with real world objects in a meaningful and structured way [6]. Consequently the digital information should augment and support the viewable real world objects, where the amount of real world objects in the environment should be more than the digital overlay information for it to be considered AR [7]. AR has become widely popular and well known with gaming apps such as Pokémon Go 1 which was recently released.…”

“…Usually the AR is desktop based where the augmentation comprises of overlaid virtual components, such as switches, that can be manipulated by the user. In [7] the virtual elements of field-programmable gate array (FPGA) boards allow the user to remotely interact with the real and virtual devices. The real devices are viewed through a camera providing video feedback.…”

Abstract-Augmented Reality (AR) is the process of overlaying meaningful interactive information in a live video stream for creating an enriched visual experience for users. Within Remote Access Laboratories (RAL) this enables users to gain design experience along with gaining knowledge about the particular experiment in question and potentially collaborate on design experiences. This paper focuses on the issues related to the applications of AR in RAL, the

“…AR brings new opportunities and channels for teaching and education, and can be helpful in addressing various students' difficulties with learning and understanding subjects such as chemistry [4]. In addition, AR also provides huge opportunities for online education, especially in disciplines that place emphasis on practical training and are unsuited for non-classroom training [2]. Moreover, AR-based mobile learning material can help learners engage in numerous learning activities [5].…”

, the authors present an AR-based learning system for an architecture course according to a formative assessment mechanism that helps learners to find answers by providing hints as they fail to answer questions correctly. The authors conducted an experiment with 39 students in the Museum of World Religions for an architecture course and found that AR-based learning with the formative assessment mechanism significantly enhances the learners' learning achievements and motivation, and also reduces their cognitive load.The second paper "Enhancing students' botanical learning by using augmented reality,"
