In science education, creating interactive and engaging activities to teach physics is an important step in assisting students in learning science concepts. Providing students with an opportunity to investigate physics concepts through inquiry and problem solving experiences will assist students in learning at a deeper level than textbook readings, videos, and demonstrations. However, designing, developing and providing these types of learning activities can be challenging for educators who lack time, resources, or experience in science. The goal of this presentation is to introduce an application that can be installed on digital devices to engage students in learning physics with Augmented Reality.
