Integration of GeoGebra Calculator 3D with Augmented Reality in Mathematics Education for an Immersive Learning Experience

Abstract

The use of augmented reality (AR) with GeoGebra allows for the contextualization of mathematical operations in real-world situations. In this approach, the teacher presents questions or problems that students solve using visualization and experimentation software. The objective of this work is to evaluate the impact of integrating the GeoGebra 3D calculator with AR. For the development of this study, the quasi-experimental method was employed, involving the comparison of results between two groups: the experimental group (EG) and the control group (CG). We worked with a population of 78 students. The study conducted confirms the use of the GeoGebra calculator in 3D with AR. AR effectively enhances mathematical learning. Seventy percent of the students in the EG achieved an outstanding level of performance, while 30% reached an expected level. In addition, a positive attitude towards mathematics was observed in 100% of the students. These results demonstrate that using the GeoGebra calculator in 3D with AR has a positive impact on mathematics learning. While in CG, 10% achieved the expected level of performance, 85% were in progress, and 5% were at the initial stage. Finally, it was concluded that the GeoGebra calculator in 3D with AR is very useful. It helps enhance the teaching and learning (TL) of mathematics and motivates students, making the development of class sessions more dynamic.
