Abstract

The Current Study Investigates The Use of Augmented Reality (AR) Technology In Science Learning By Means of A Quantitative Survey Using Two Questionnaires. In Fact, This Study Explores Perceived Cognitive Load, and Attitudes among 106 Students of Second Preparatory Grade (35) Students Learned Science with Augmented Reality Context, and (71) Students Learned Science with Traditional Method. The Findings Manifested That, In General, The AR Students Perceived Less Cognitive Load And Attained More Positive Attitudes Towards The Experiences. The Perceived Usefulness And Easiness of Use Play A Role In The Intentions To Take Part In Future AR Learning, And Effect On The Attitude Toward Using AR Environments.
