Augmented reality in education: a meta-review and cross-media analysis

Abstract

RESUMENAnálisis, diseño e implementación de un aplicativo basado en Software Libre para dispositivos móviles dirigido a estudiantes del ciclo básico de formación universitaria con miras a fortalecer el proceso de aprendizaje y reducir índices de deserción, así como mejorar el rendimiento académico.El aplicativo es un prototipo conformado por cinco ejercicios seleccionados de la asignatura de cálculo multivariable para aplicarse durante la clase, esto para dar cumplimiento al objetivo general del presente trabajo, que busca Analizar los efectos de la aplicación de un prototipo como material didáctico con Realidad Aumentada aplicado a la asignatura de cálculo multivariable en las Unidades Tecnológicas de Santander.Como medida inicial, y para cumplir con los objetivos específicos se recolectó información sobre indicadores académicos de las Unidades Tecnológicas de Santander que permitiesen dar una visión general de la problemática para así diseñar el aplicativo encaminado a mejorar la situación estudiada.De manera análoga se hizo una revisión de los trabajos realizados referentes a este tipo de tecnología y en especial los aplicados a mejorar el rendimiento académico en diferentes instituciones a nivel mundial; basado en esto, se enfocó de una mejor manera el trabajo en el presente estudio.Como resultados se tienen en cuenta aspectos relacionados con la aceptación e interacción del usuario final, en este caso estudiantes, con el aplicativo móvil. Se notó una gran motivación al momento de usar el prototipo, de manera que un gran porcentaje de los estudiantes objeto de la muestra notaron la gran potencialidad de vincular tecnología dentro del aula.

Whistland: An Augmented Reality Crowd-Mapping System for Civil Protection and Emergency Management

“…AR is a promising technology that is being applied in many contexts as diverse as cultural heritage [9,10], education [11], geographic visualization [12], environmental monitoring [13], as well as disaster management [14,15]. The ability to abstract through real-time visualization the objective information that overlies images captured from cameras augments the experience of a user in that he or she can view and explore better contextualized content, often sourced from the web (i.e., multimedia-related content or georeferenced information) [16].…”

An E-Assessment Framework for Blended Learning with Augmented Reality to Enhance the Student Learning

“… Collaborative learning as students can collaborative with groups of student to elaborate their knowledge (Adamson et al, 2014;Radu, 2014).…”

“…AR is a source of collaborative learning as students can collaborative with other groups of student to elaborate their knowledge. Besides, the way of communication with learning encounters is changing: Students don't just utilize animates to associate with on-screen content (conceivable with customary desktop programming), however now, understudies can use their whole body to take up with informational substance that appears to exist in the physical world (conceivable through enlarged reality innovation) (Radu, 2014). Augmented Reality has been utilized to build up understudies' understanding of science, including natural science (Squire & Klopfer, 2007), biomedical science (Yusoff, Zaman, & Ahmad, 2011) .…”

“…The goal was to evaluate the practicality of utilizing AR on cell phones as a part of instructive situations and to research the relationship between the convenience of the device, understudy cooperation, and the change in scholastic execution after utilizing AR. Radu et al (2014) reviewed the 26 publications that were a comparison of AR and non-AR experiences in student's learning. They highlighted the list of good and bad impacts of AR in students' learning and also identified the factors that effect thereon (Radu, 2014).…”

They highlighted the list of good and bad impacts of AR in students' learning and also identified the factors that effect thereon (Radu, 2014). Based on the research, a questionnaire was generated to judge learning potential of AR experiences.…”
