This study was designed to examine how the science teaching process was conducted using Science Coaster, a virtual reality application developed for fourth-grade primary school students, and to identify the effects of this process on students' academic achievement, motivation, and experiences. The research was structured as a case study, and the…

In this study, it was aimed to investigate the effects of modelling and the materials designed with augmented reality technology on the academic success of students, their motivation, and their interest levels towards the science course. The study was conducted in 6th grade science units on "Support and Movement Systems" and…

Augmented Reality (AR) revolutionizes educational approaches by providing an immersive experience that superimposes virtual 3D elements onto the physical environment. This integration of virtual and real worlds addresses the challenge of understanding abstract concepts by enabling three-dimensional visualization and interaction. This study aims to…

One of the main courses that have been affected by instructional technology is science education since the nature of topics covered by the science curriculum may require the usage of technology to teach them better. The aim of the current study was to investigate the effects of virtual laboratories on the development of gifted children's…

Background: Immersive virtual reality (IVR) applications that support student learning have gained increasing interest. However, empirical studies exploring the educational potential of using IVR in primary school science classrooms are lacking. Objectives: This study developed a series of IVR science lessons for primary school students and…

This study examines the effects of six augmented-reality (AR)-supported lessons in lower-secondary natural science classes in Vietnam on students' conceptual understanding, engagement, and motivation. We used a quasi-experimental, non-equivalent control group design in two semi-rural public schools (grades 6-8; eight weeks). Intervention classes…

This study investigates the effects of the Algodoo interactive learning program on fifth-grade students' achievement in science and motivation towards science. The research was carried out in the fall semester of the 2020-2021 academic year with the participation of 110 fifth grade students. In the study, a pre-test-post-test control group…

Statement of Purpose and Method of Study: Oculus Rift immersive virtual reality includes a headset and a computer and immerses the user into a three-dimensional experience. Immersive virtual reality learning experiences with classroom discussions are emergent, novel instructional methods. This standard exploratory study investigated an…

VR technology is being widely used in education due to it's a sense of immersion, real-time interaction, and ability to stimulate imagination. However, there is a lack of research comparing students at different stages. This study used a quasi-experimental design involving 73 fourth-grade and 86 eighth-grade students in two schools in northwest…

The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the Science teaching process to middle school students using teaching materials prepared via augmented reality (AR) technology. In the experimental study, 61 sixth grade students at a middle school in Antalya in the 2019-2020 academic year were selected randomly, and the mixed research…

Developing the problem-solving abilities of elementary school students has been recognized as an important educational objective. Science curricula, because of their practical and experimental characteristics, are thought to be an important way to develop students' problem-solving ability. The use of Virtual Reality (VR) technology in teaching…

This study examined the impact of the Augmented reality (AR) use on Jordanian 6th grade students' attitudes towards science and their learning outcomes. A quantitative quasi-experimental study is preceded with the Pre-test and Post-test control group design model, where 24 students who identified to have special needs participated in this study…

The role of technology literacy in education, which is one of the 21st century skills that students should have, is very important. This study examines the effect of augmented reality (AR) applications, which is a new technology, on students' academic achievement and the level of recalling the learned knowledge. In this study, quasi-experimental…

In this study, it was aimed to investigate the effect of virtual reality usage in science teaching on 100 students attending 6th grade in Orhaneli district of Bursa province in 2017-2018 academic year. The study was designed as an experimental model of quantitative research methods. The Cell Knowledge Test developed by the researcher in the…

Emerging technologies have been widely used in applications designed to increase potential for learning enhancement. This study develops a mobile application to integrate augmented reality (AR) functionality into physical puzzle-type games. In the application, learners see visualizations of three-dimensional (3D) dinosaurs and interact with…
