Augmented Reality as a Tool for the Development of Mathematical Skills

Abstract

Presently the incorporation of Information Technology and Communications to improve the process of teaching and learning is an issue of global interest. This paper shows how the augmented reality can used as a tool to support the development of student skills in the mathematics area. In this sense, students’ learning problems is showed, as well as the state of the art in augmented reality and the development of an activity in order to implement the augmented reality in the topic of sets. Such activity was developed in a mathematics course with some students of information systems at the Nayarit University. Finally, results and conclusions are shown.
