Description

The subject of electricity offers many experiments to use an augmented learning environment. The Application PUMA: Magnetlabor developed in the PUMA project is mainly intended for visualizing the models of the magnetic field and provide an insight into matter. A comparative study examines the influence of augmented reality on cognitive load and situational interest. The focus is pupils’ individual perspective. This is assessed by intermediate tests after each of three presentation options. Experiments supported by a simulation application, experiments enriched with an AR application and classical settings are compared.
