Motivation
The general objective of this final integrative work is
to study the state of the art of AR applied to education,
analyzing its current validity, carrying out a search, analysis
and cataloging of different educational RA applications
available on the market.
It is intended to offer a AR application consultation tool that
can be used by teachers with the ultimate aim of helping
them to learn about and choose RA applications that they
can apply in their teaching-learning processes.
Specific Objectives:
• Study the fundamentals of AR and investigate its use in
the educational field
• Collect recent experiences of educational AR, establish
classification criteria and classify the experiences according
to established criteria
• Collect RA applications available online that may be useful
in the educational field, establish classification criteria and
classify the applications according to the established criteria
• Create a catalog of AR applications accessible online with
search filters
The expected contribution of this work is:
• Obtain a consultation tool for AR educational applications
available on the market that can be used by teachers in
order to help them learn about and choose applications that
they can incorporate into their teaching-learning processes.
• Show the degree of use of AR technology through an
updated compilation of publications, in terms of subject
areas, educational levels and countries in which it is used
as educational support.
Thesis Final Work contrinutions
It is evident in this work, the study and presentation of
the foundations for tracking, visualization, interaction,
development and possibilities of Augmented Reality (AR)
technology.
On the other hand, different educational instruments are
investigated that include AR in education: books, games,
theater; that report didactic advantages, such as the
motivation of its use by students due to the attractiveness
of the AR resources offered. That is why this technology is
considered -by many- as disruptive, since it transcendently
promotes teaching-learning processes.
Likewise, in order to see in which thematic areas, levels
and countries AR is being used in education, a current
systematic review (year 2019) of educational experiences
in AR was carried out as a contribution of the work. This
review indicates its degree of incidence in education at the
different educational levels (University, tertiary or higher,
secondary, primary, initial and special), observing a greater
number of jobs at the higher and university level than at the
primary and secondary levels , while at the preschool and
special education levels the number of jobs found is smaller.
Regarding the application of AR, it is used in most of the
study topics, since works classified into 22 subtopics were
compiled, with a higher prevalence of medicine, followed by
language and chemistry teaching. Regarding the countries
where the experiences were carried out, it can be said that
they were concentrated in the most developed regions such
as Asia (Taiwan), Europe (Spain) and North America (USA).
