Innovative Tools for Secondary Science: Exploring ePathshala's AR Learning Experience

A recent study investigated how augmented reality (AR) technology affects students' perceptions of scientific education and learning objectives. Eighth-grade pupils were split into control and experimental groups for a study that was carried out in the Pilibhit, District of Uttar Pradesh. The latter combined traditional education with the ePathshala AR Mobile App. The favorable effects of augmented reality on students' attitudes toward science and analytical learning outcomes were demonstrated by the results of pretest and posttest evaluations. The study, which included 74 participants overall, recommends using augmented reality (AR) technology—more particularly, the ePathshala AR App—to help students understand scientific subjects. The NCERT app, which is funded by the Indian government's Ministry of Human Resource Development, is in line with Digital India's objectives of using technology to promote skill development and educational empowerment. By encouraging active student exploration and interaction, this program makes scientific education more dynamic and successful.
