Mathematics learning instrument using augmented reality for learning 3D geometry

Abstract

Augmented Reality (AR) is one kind of Virtual Reality (VR) technologies that can be used to help students who have difficulties to imagine geometrical objects in three-dimension way. AR can be applied in mobile learning which will improve the efficiency and effectiveness in learning process. The aim of this study was to develop the mathematics learning instruments using AR for secondary students. The methodology that used in this study was research and development. Sketchup software is used to draw geometrical objects and AR application can be used to view the objects in 3D. The subjects of this study were 15 students of grade nine. Experts' assessments and students' responses results were used to collect the data. The finding shows that the instrument is categorized as valid and it can be implemented in learning process. The validity aspects consist of languages, contents, and design. Besides, the instrument can be used in learning process, catch students' interest and help them to understand geometry contents.
