Abstract

Currently, there is an increased interest in the incorporation of Augmented Reality in the educational field due to the benefits that technology can bring to the teaching process, especially when in some cities there are no physical and tangible learning environments -a museum or field trips -that allow an adequate understanding of the process of hominization, dispersion around the planet and American settlement in the subject of History, Geography and Social Sciences. Thus, Augmented Reality incorporated into a didactic sequence emerges as an alternative to recreate meaningful learning experiences for students. The educational research was circumscribed to the positivist paradigm and considered the quantitative method, pre-experimental modality as an inquiry strategy and the pretest and posttest research design with an intact group to answer the research question. By means of the inferential analysis, and by means of the statistical t Student test for related samples, it was evidenced that elementary school students achieved significant changes in their learning with the incorporation of this emerging technology.
