Abstract

Augmented reality technologies undertake focus role which provide opportunity to harmonize the earthilyreality with virtual field and evaluate their integral elements.The very first examples of augmented realityapplications are viewers on the head,simulators,wearable tools,pocket PCs,desktop PCs and cameras whichare integrated externally but augmented reality applications have gain a great acceleration by developingtechnologies such as internet,becoming popular for the mobile devices and their mobile applicationsaccordingly and especially by the appearance of the smart wears and increase on their functions.Augmentedreality applications that are often used in defence,industry,medicine,trade and entertainment are now startedto be used in the education.Augmented reality applications achieve deep learning of the systems or objectswhich are hard to learn by attracting attention and cares of the students by providing their different viewsduring teaching and learning process.Also these applications supports students to use their creativity byexpanding their imagination.Especially if we consider today’s students are digital natives(Y and Z generation) who grow up in the multimedia world and inside the technology,it is a reality that augmented reality applications which have rich content in the learning-teaching environments can have a role that increase themotivations of the students instead of a classic course book. In the light of these information, in this study theresearch and application samples of augmented reality which is now used widely in teaching and learningprocess the effect of augmented reality on teaching and learning is handled.Keywords: Augmented reality, augmented reality applications in education

Summary

Introduction

Rapid changes and advances in science and technology affect and change the lifestyle of individuals. Major brands have started to give importance to providing a more realistic and embodied experience to their customers by using Augmented Reality (AR) This technology, which appears in many fields such as cosmetics, automobiles, construction, food, combines the virtual world with real life. The most importantly, companies from the public or private sector invest on enhanced technology in order to better promote or market their services/products and need talented people/firms in this field In this context, augmented reality applications offer these services to businesses with technology support. These tools, which can be named as wearable computers in the literature, reveal a commensalistic relationship between human and computer the daily life of the individual has a structure that enriches their experience [13]. It is predicted that such research studies will be important so that educators realize the benefits of these technologies and use them actively in learning environments
