Abstract

Technology plays an important role in many aspects of day-to-day life, and education is no different. Technology in education can influence students to learn actively and can motivate them, leading to an effective process of learning. In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in applying Augmented Reality (AR) to a wide range of industries. This paper reports a review of recorded successful implementations of AR technology in different industries, from Medicine to Marketing, Military to Education, where the main goal is to reveal the benefits of this emerging technology in educational settings. More specifically this review
describes the application of AR in a number of subjects as complex as Biology, Chemistry, Anatomy, Geometry, and Physics. This paper also discusses the intention of several technologically advanced governments to implement forward-thinking AR technology in their national curriculum as it will benefit the learning capabilities of the students leading to a qualified
workforce.
