Abstract
Augmented reality technologies undertake focus role which provide opportunity to harmonize the earthily
reality with virtual field and evaluate their integral elements.The very first examples of augmented reality
applications are viewers on the head,simulators,wearable tools,pocket PCs,desktop PCs and cameras which
are integrated externally but augmented reality applications have gain a great acceleration by developing
technologies such as internet,becoming popular for the mobile devices and their mobile applications
accordingly and especially by the appearance of the smart wears and increase on their functions.Augmented
reality applications that are often used in defence,industry,medicine,trade and entertainment are now started
to be used in the education.Augmented reality applications achieve deep learning of the systems or objects
which are hard to learn by attracting attention and cares of the students by providing their different views
during teaching and learning process.Also these applications supports students to use their creativity by
expanding their imagination.Especially if we consider today’s students are digital natives(Y and Z generation) who grow up in the multimedia world and inside the technology,it is a reality that augmented reality applications which have rich content in the learning-teaching environments can have a role that increase the
motivations of the students instead of a classic course book. In the light of these information, in this study the
research and application samples of augmented reality which is now used widely in teaching and learning
process the effect of augmented reality on teaching and learning is handled.
