realidad aumentada como herramienta didáctica con el fin de promover el conocimiento de la asignatura de biología

Abstract

Augmented Reality has proven to be a tool with positive effects in education, its functionality allows to awaken different aptitudes and attitudes in the teacher and students, at present traditional learning is latent in educational institutions so it seeks to introduce an innovative tool such as augmented reality, this has the possibility of awakening different pedagogical currents according to the adaptation made. The main objective of this project is to implement augmented reality as a didactic tool to promote meaningful learning with the subject of Biology in the students of the first year of high school in parallel computer specialty "C" in the high school "Carmen Mora de Encalada" in the city of Pasaje. In order to achieve the objective, it was necessary to establish specific objectives which help to fulfill the main objective previously established, such as analyzing the didactic strategies used by the teacher to know how to introduce meaningful learning within these strategies, implement the use of augmented reality adapted to the didactic unit plan of the institution, and finally identify the appropriate resources to promote meaningful learning in the classroom. Within the present research, the use of the qualitative approach and quantitative approach has been carried out, within the qualitative approach the interview tool was used in order to know the teacher's opinion and as a tool of the quantitative approach the survey technique has been selected to know the students' opinion. For the creation of the prototype two different tools have been selected, CoSpaces allows creating different scenarios of augmented reality in a practical and simple way without much difficulty from a mobile device, in the same way it has a lot of tools and resources which allows an easy adaptation to different themes of classes, as a second tool is the Merge cube, this allows manipulating 3D objects from the palm of the hand. These two tools have the possibility of working together, achieving the two great benefits of both, having as a result the ability to work with augmented reality scenarios in the palm of the hand. The development of the tool made use of the ADDIE methodology, which is structured by 5 phases, within these it is established how the execution of the prototype will be carried out. The results obtained show a positive reception to the prototype, thanks to its structure and the multimedia elements that make it up, highlighting the ease of use and how it facilitated the development of the class with the reception of the contents. It is possible to indicate that augmented reality as a didactic tool allows to promote meaningful learning among students.
