AUGMENTED REALITY BASED AR ALPHABETS TOWARDS IMPROVED LEARNING PROCESS IN PRIMARY EDUCATION SYSTEM

Education gives the insight to take us to the future which has not been possible to grasp due to lack of research methodologies towards learning process. Traditional formal education methodologies feel like living in the old age as existing learning processes are not advanced like technology which starts from primary education. As a result, children are losing interest in education due to the way of learning. In this context, learning is a continuous process where the quality cannot be justified by just including reading and writing, the overall process should be creative and interactive as well. However, existing primary education system seems to abandon the main idea about education and learning process to lean towards memorization and rote learning. The way of acquisition of education should be through discussion, research, storytelling, training which should be fun and interesting but our traditional primary education is based on two-dimensional materials and does not provide any of these opportunities. In this context, augmented reality or AR can be considered as advanced technology which can revolt the learning through visualization and interaction by engaging various characteristics. Recently, scientists are researching about how to incorporate AR with education where they gained positive results and by taking the positive result from the previous researches, this research proposed an Augmented Reality application: AR Alphabets. This research integrated proposed AR Alphabets with traditional primary education for better and improved learning experience. Experimental evaluation demonstrates effective efficiency to improve the learning process using proposed augmented reality based AR alphabet.
