Augmented reality as a tool to increase the attractiveness of geoscience education

In recent years, more and more students have focused on the study of management, economics and IT subjects. Science subjects go to the background and geosciences are no exception. The study presents the possibilities of using the latest IT technologies, especially augmented reality as a tool to increase the attractiveness of the study of geosciences. With the help of the project, an educational material cooperating with augmented reality was created and subsequently it was tested on a sample of students studying at primary schools. The results are evaluated at the end of the paper, where solutions are also proposed to increase the attractiveness of the study of geosciences. The results showed that using an augmented reality mobile application increased the learning motivation of students.
