Using Inquiry-based Augmented Reality Tool to Explore Chemistry Micro Worlds

Abstract

In this paper, an inquiry-based Augmented Reality learning tool was implemented. Students could control, combine and interact with the 3D model of micro particles using markers, and conduct a series of inquiry-based experiments. The AR tool developed was tested in practice at a junior high school. Experiment result shows that the AR tool has significant supplemental learning effect as a computer-assisted learning tool and students generally have a positive attitude towards this software.
