Abstract | Recent research in the area of multimedia conducted by the authors in Australia, Japan and North America has re-confirmed the importance and effectiveness of visual features in teaching and learning materials. According to the findings, the visual aspects and interaction with the multimedia systems are the most preferred features amongst the surveyed students. In all of these studies, the surveyed students have also indicated that the visual features play a very important role in understanding the concepts. Based on these findings, the authors have embarked on an investigation to determine the practical and innovative uses of the technologies associated with augmented reality. A very typical augmented reality product is Google Glass. Hence, this paper has initiated a study on the possible contributions this amazing device can make to mathematics education. It has been shown that Google Glass can assist leaners to access and share information, connect and engage in discussions with others by utilising a more human-like interface. |
