The Effect of Augmented Reality Technology on the Performance of University Students

Abstract

In this study, which was created with distance education and augmented reality technology, it was aimed to determine the effect on the performance of university students. When the research is examined, it is seen that the quantitative research method is used. The study was carried out in the fall semester of 2021–2022. A total of 422 volunteer university students who continue their achievements in the study participated in the research. In the research, augmented reality, virtual technology and distance education were taught to university students for 5 weeks via online application training. The data collection tool, which was developed by the researchers and organised by experts in the field, was used in the study, simply called ‘Augmented Reality’. The data collection tool was used to collect data of the people who participated in the research and created the research by solving it with the help of virtual programmes. In the analysis of the collected and compiled data, frequency analysis and t-test were used by using the SPSS programme, which is preferred in many studies, and the results were added to the research in the presence of tables. According to the results obtained from the research, it was concluded that university students’ views on distance education and augmented reality were high and there was a difference.

Adventuring Physics: Integration of Adventure Game and Augmented Reality Based on Android in Physics Learning

“…AR can be utilized in various functions, one of which is in education and learning that can attract, motivate, and provide real visuals for someone to understand a material concept that requires a high level of reasoning and imagination [38]. Several studies have developed and implemented AR-based media in learning [39][40][41][42]. For example, Suprapto et al [43] conducted an AR-based pocketbook trial on the study of planetary motion physics subject.…”

Augmented Reality Awareness and Latest Applications in Education: A Review

“…The tool is based on speech recognition that helps non-English speaking students interact with the application, thus leading to higher engagement and better results [51]. Authors in [52] studied the effect of AR on distance learning. They used a quantitative research method to measure the performance of 422 university students.…”

Percepción de los estudiantes sobre la realidad aumentada como recurso didáctico para el aprendizaje de Ciencias Naturales

“…De manera más específica, diversos estudios previos han destacado que la Realidad Aumentada no solo favorece y facilita el rendimiento académico (Cabero, 2018;Garzón y Acevedo, 2019;Elmira, 2022), sino que también contribuye a aumentar la motivación de los estudiantes hacia los contenidos y actividades académicas (Marrahí-Gómez y Belda-Medina, 2022). Además, su utilización conlleva un alto grado de satisfacción entre los estudiantes cuando participan en experiencias de interacción con objetos de aprendizaje en Realidad Aumentada (Higaldo-Cajo et al, 2021;Barroso y Palacios, 2022).…”
