Abstract
ABSTRACT With the development of mobile phone applications with innovative features, the application of mobile recognition technology, such as a mobile image recognition-based (AR) application, is becoming increasingly widespread. Mobile Image Recognition-Based AR connect nearby objects or other physical targets with digital information. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of using an image recognition-based AR application on students’ acquisition of science process skills and their motivation toward science learning. The study involved 56 students enrolled in two sections of tenth-grade female students in a private school in Jordan. Each section was randomly assigned to either the control group or the experimental group. The experimental group studied a unit from the biology textbook with image-based recognition content. In contrast, the control group studied the same unit using the conventional teaching method based on the traditional textbook content. The researchers administered a science both groups a science process skills test and a motivation toward learning science scale. Results showed that participants who used a mobile image recognition application to learn science had higher acquisition of all science skills and a higher motivation toward learning science than those who used the conventional learning method.
