Abstract :The aim of this study is to examine the effects of investigate social studies teaching supported by teaching materials developed with augmented reality (AR) technology applications on students' academic achievement, attitudes and motivations towards the course and to determine the attitudes of students using AR technology towards the use of AR applications in the classroom. An experimental design using quantitative research methods was employed in the present study. The study sample consists of 70 5th grade students studying at a junior high school in south Turkey in the 2017-2018 academic year. Positive effects of the use of AR applications on students' academic achievement, attitudes and motivation towards the course were observed. In addition, students using AR applications were satisfied with the use of the applications, were willing to use the application and did not have any worries while using the application. Therefore, an increase in the use of activities related to AR applications in education processes is predicted to be beneficial for teaching and learningKeywords : augmented reality, social studies, educational technology
