Effectiveness of Augmented Reality in the Teaching of Health University Students.

Comparative Study of Augmented Reality in the Teaching of Health University Students.

The exponential growth of new technologies has meant that the educational field has had to update itself. From the educational point of view, there are some studies that have promoted the implementation of new technologies. These facts have raised the need to implement augmented reality in the university environment, especially among students of health sciences. The use of augmented reality can mean a new approach to teaching by teachers and better learning by students. Objetive: To compare the degree of usability of the two augmented reality applications and to analyse the academic performance of the control group and the experimental group at the Universities of Cadiz and Malaga. The existence of significant differences and relationships between the two variables will be observed.

This research has followed the SPIRIT statement and the ethical and legal aspects of the Principles of the Declaration of Helsinki. An intervention was carried out using two augmented reality applications in the subject of General Procedures in Physiotherapy II at the Universities of Malaga and Cadiz.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Students who belong to the degree of Physiotherapy and who are enrolled in the subject General Procedures in Physical Therapy II.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Non-university students.
• Non-university students from outside the health care field.
