ABSTRACT
Augmented Reality technologies can be considered to be a fascinating choice for educators seeking resources and methods to stimulate their students about the topic they teach. In recent years, the increasing number of relevant educational applications indicates that this new technology has the potential of becoming a leading educational method in schools and universities. The current work overviews the importance and impact of this technology in widening primary students’ knowledge and how it can be used by teachers worldwide to motivate and broaden educational horizons. Furthermore, this work examines a wide number of augmented reality applications for the Android mobile operating system, available online for educational purposes and analyzes the ways in which they can be helpful for schoolteachers, lecturers, and parents.
