AUGMENTED REALITY TECHNOLOGY AS A MEANS OF CONSOLIDATING EDUCATIONAL MATERIAL

The article presents the consideration of the use of augmented reality (AR) technology in the educational process, which with the help of electronic devices (smartphones, AR glasses, tablets, etc.) allows you to complement the real world of people with visual objects, involving students to interact with the physical environment and facilitate their learning. Important in teaching is the formation of a sustainable interest among students in the processes of discovering new knowledge, its consolidation or actualization. Software products using AR technology will allow you to do this. As such a software product, the authors consider “Mobile augmented reality application “LSPU CYBER QUEST” — a computer program developed at the Lipetsk State Pedagogical P. SemenovTyan-Shansky University, which is registered with the Federal Service for Intellectual Property. The software product is developed on the Unity engine using Vuforia in the C# programming language. The mobile application is an integral part of the game of the same name “LSPU CYBER QUEST”, aimed at consolidating (or updating) knowledge, skills and abilities in the computer science section “Information coding”. The goal of the game is to help Peter Petrovich put together a friend’s letter consisting of fragments of encoded messages. The game consists of 6 tasks according to the number of messages received. Augmented reality is implemented both in the tasks themselves at the various stages of the game, and during the transition between stages. The use of games with elements of augmented reality will increase the students’ learning motivation and make the process of consolidating educational material more dynamic.
